Choose It

Two sips from the cup of human kindness, and I'm shit-faced

Just laid to waste

If there's a choice between chance and flight,
Choose it tonight.

Just got back from a whirlwind walk from the Lincoln Memorial to the Washington Monument to the White House. Beautiful, all of it...though a) the White House is small and b) there was something being filmed/videotaped in the courtyard, which made me think of Vancouver.

Training again. AFrisch was good, convering Cfengine quite well; would've liked to see more info about expect. (Apparently there are Perl/Python bindings...I had no idea.) Afternoon course was "Interviewing For System Administrators" by Adam Moskowitz and that was great -- lots of things I didn't know, lots of tips on doing it better next time.

Saw Tom Limoncelli in the hall during a break. Managed to restrain myself. I have the reputation for quiet restraint of a nation to uphold.

Very tired now. Time to go get beer.
