Part IIIa: Interlude

Posted 08-28-2009 at 04:50 AM by tbro
Hello Folks,

Obviously I haven't posted for awhile now so I thought I should post an interlude in the meanwhile.

I've been working on the main desk, both in construction and my current work load. we've been migrating our hosting system to virtual servers. Mostly it's been going smooth but I've been terribly busy and up until the wee hours of the morning, which ends up having me sleep during daylight hours mostly.
