In an event unheard of previously in Saskatoon, the weather has remained the same for two days in a row. It’s quite foggy here - not as foggy as it was yesterday (I couldn’t see the theatres a block away out my window) but today I can’t see much beyond four blocks away from here. I know there are lots of places in the world that have fog all the time, but I don’t think I could put up with it — it makes me claustrophobic.

Speaking of my window… I was offered an office (with a door) at work yesterday, but I turned it down, in favour of staying where I am, and keeping a window. I was actually the second person to turn down the office on the same grounds (though the other guy has a corner cubicle, so he’s got three times the windows I do.) It would have been nice to have an office, but since we’re headed into that time of year where I wouldn’t see the sun for six months without my window, I didn’t want to give it up. The guy who eventually took the office wanted to make sure that he would still have the option of “downgrading” to a window cubicle in the event that one opens up, since he’d basically be first on the seniority list.

So, that was my major decision for yesterday.

I managed to get Erin’s email and stuff migrated properly, but accidentally copied my mail profile the wrong direction, so I had to do the whole knoppix thing again. This time I just hooked the hard drive up to the desktop internally, along with a second HD, so there were three HD’s in the box. This time I just copied over the entire contents, and I’ll try to re-migrate (the right direction this time) tonight.
