The last two months...
The last two months in a nutshell..
Ok..so I quit working at TRU and moved back to Mt Pleasant at the end of March/beginning of April. I had a lot of stuff (aka crap) to sort through in my room. Most of it is still spread thoughout the house--mostly the garage. April means taxes, so I did my taxes and decided to spend half of it on a new computer..
The new computer..awesome. I went from a P2 400 to a P4 2.4G, 512MB dimm, ati radeon 8500dv, two new hard drives totalling 200 gigs, and a new case that fits under my desk. I've had my old video card since Jeremy and I each bought one in April of 1998 (I believe) making it 5 years old and not worth a darn. The case..I'd never get rid of the big huge black tower server case, but I currently need a smaller case. The new case is nowhere close to the quality of my old case, but it has a window on the side and lights up :). I currently have both of the computers connected to get all the data off of the old one. I'm moslty done now, but both can compute seti workunits :). I still need to reformat the old one to speed it up a bit..maybe let Kira use it. Letting Kira use it MIGHT get her off of my other one..
Ok, so after the new computer came the need for a job. Luckily one found me. I'm now a carpenter..I'm learning lots of things that I have always wanted to learn. I work for a small/new company called Lowcountry Trim (there's currently 5 of us--2 being the bosses). We do interior trim (baseboard, crown molding, trim around windows/doors, we set doors, stairs....). We work moslty in high-end houses. Currently we are working in Edisto for the SCDNR. It's a really cool building that will have a small museum/aquarium, labs, and offices for the Department of Natural Resources. I'll takes pictures soon and post them..sometime. This building is awesome..
That's enough for now..
