Next week I get to present some data to a bunch of printer geeks. I took a bunch of Linux distributions and plugged in various printers and swore a lot and wrote down what I did to get the printing working. Plus, I wrote down the quirks I found. I’m sure I’m going to get skewered for my mistakes and, even better, I have to travel to Kentucky to do this. A week away from home (which is the only place I sleep well) and in the south, to boot.<\/p>\n
If anyone has any suggestions for what to eat or do in Cincinnati or Lexington, let me know. I think I should have some free time. Most likely I’ll be sitting in a hotel room with my laptop on (if I have intarweb connectivity) watching the World Series.<\/p>\n
Speaking of not sleeping well, I haven’t been sleeping enough this week. I went to sleep early last night and I woke up having a nightmare about going to see a movie and being annoyed by the guy next to me shining little mini-flashlights in his face during the movie. His girlfriend was doing it too. When I asked them to stop, they started arguing with me. Yeesh.<\/p>\n
Back in the real world, I had to detour during my normal commute because there was a police car blocking my way. I didn’t see anything in the news about it and my sister thinks it might have been a movie filming. What the hell. I thought movies were supposed to be made in LA or Vancouver, Canada, not in Portland where they block the streets and annoy me. Sheesh.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
