Monday was the first D&D session this year, with a new chapter of the story and a whole new DM (Rob). It was really good fun, with a very different city-based scenario and everything. Really good to get going again. Also snacks. I think the close association between D&D and snacks is worrying and needs to be examined.
Work has been a bit different. Yesterday and today I've been working on sorting out how to migrate two of the AIX systems from the old server, which now has prohibitively high maintenance costs, onto the new shiny blade servers. Since I've not had any training on the blades, their enclosure, the SAN disks they're connected to, or the new 6.1 version of AIX that they will need to be upgraded to, and there's 100gb of data to transfer, there's rather a lot of Googling, scouring of the IBM website and a fair bit of frustration and panic going on. Fun. But an external consultant on a different job today was kind enough to drop some hints and I guess we can get people in if it comes down to it.
Other than that not done much else. Played around a bit in Saints Row 3, and found that a man in a pink dress with matching makeup can still look relatively badass if he is holding a huge sniper rifle and has a VTOL jet parked behind him. Just. It's a real shame it doesn't have the cutscene and mission replay option of the previous game.
Feel basically better today but still coughing slightly, and the hot stale air in the office doesn't help at all.
Weird to have Wikipedia and Reddit shut down because of the SOPA thing, although I understand and support why. The Internet is far too valuable to be fucked up like that.
