Wednesday: Woke a bit after 9. Web. Gus was hounding me (which is odd for a cat) so, gave him his treatments. Shower. Forgot to mention that Oscar the doppleganger cat was in the back last two days. Gave him food too. Down basement and sitting. Drums, feeling a bit rusty. Put away laundry, and headed out.
Arriving in H Sq, found a large crane blocking the entrance to the parking garage. Found parking on the street and put money in the meter. A bit more research, and finally settled on a plan of attack for my disk burning project, then started writing some code, beginning with the UI. Fed the meter. Walked into the H Bookstore to make a joke about needing a book suitable for holding open a door, but too busy. Lunch at my desk thanks to MB, with excellent pickle containment. Got a good bit of the UI happening, and home around 8:30.
Practices in the basement until 9:20 or so. MB had come home in the meanwhile. Loaded up my car with gear and said goodbye. In to Boston. Found parking, no I didn't, yes I did. Walked about two blocks carrying: my rack effects, stool, foot pedal, amplifier and electric guitar. Arrived at the Charles Playhouse Bar. Victor came in wearing his Blue Man paint, and showed me where to set up. Two drummers, one Warr Guitar, and Victor and myself both on electric guitars. About two hours of mayhem ensued, with one break in the middle. Good fun. I think the second set might have been better... more melodic on my part anyway. Spilled a cup of mostly ice while packing up my gear. Back home around 12:30.
MB had put together the garbage and recycling, which I took out to the curb, along with the busticated storm door. Researching RAID solutions. (My $325 Terabyte drive arrived today. In 1989 I paid $800 for a 100 megabyte drive, or 8 dollars a megabyte. There are 10 "100 megabytes" in a gigabyte, and 1,000 gigabytes in one terabyte. So, this drive is 10,000 times the size of the drive I bought in 1989, for less than half the cost... or about 3 cents a megabyte.) Now to complete the day.
