Well I took my voucher exam and got an 82.6%... so I'm now eligible to take the CCNA exam or the Second half of my certification... I'm not 100% sure which one I will take yet....
now off to finish everything else for today....
Well... I managed to do a bunch of things today.... I went to Barnes and Noble and bought the Newest Robert Ludlum book.... I also ordered 5 things from Barnes and Noble using the rest of my gift card... But I bought 1 cd, and 4 books.... the CD was 9.98 and the books were $5.99, two at $3.99 and one at $1.99.... so not too shabby....
I just ordered them like 10 minutes ago, and got a confirmation for shipping on Wednesday four minutes later.... go Barnes and Noble...
Here's my schedule for tomorrow:
While listening to a Podcast last night, I learned about a Windows Security Vulnerability fix that all versions of Microsoft Windows Have. I recommend that everybody should download and install. You can get the fix from Here
I was updating some album art today, and I came across this Vanity Fare entry... I knew they were getting old... but I didn't think they were that old.
so I was looking at some settings on my computer, specifically the DNS server settings... my DNS Servers are statically set, but for some reason tonight, they weren't what I had set them to... the ones that I had set them to are 68.187.64.196 and 68.187.66.196.... they were changed to 85.255.114.100 and 85.255.112.151.... those addresses are from the Netherlands... more specifically registerd in Kiev, Ukraine... now I"m not sure how this has happened... I'm going to start doing some research and see what might have been the cause.... initially nothing comes up... but I'm going to keep digging deeper.
So I had to go back to work today.... which wasn't fun... but oh well....
I did learn today, however, that starting on January 7th, I would be full-time... so now I can buy my Mac Mini... and 23" High Definition Apple Display... and a new KVM... so that'll be cool....
That's about it for now....
So, I didn't get a whole lot for Christmas, but I did get a couple of Apple Store Gift Certificates, and I traded my sister my itunes gift certificates for cash.... so I got a bunch of cash as well...I also got a new wallet with more money from my Grandparents... so I'm saving up some cash to buy a new Mac Mini when the new ones come out.... I would also like to buy a new monitor... but I can wait on that even longer... although I'd like to have a 23" HD Apple display... since my computer can't handle a 30", 23" would do. the funniest thing was that there was a box shaped just like an Ipod Nano for me, but it turned out to be a 365 day Duct Tape calendar.... oh well I can always get myself an ipod nano if I really want one...
Total for Mac Mini plus Display, Keyboard, and Apple Care: 1,993 without tax... I'm not sure how much with tax....
I think I'll probably get the Mac Mini, Keyboard and Apple care soon, and then get the Display with my Tax Refund.... but we'll see...
I updated my blogging software up to the latest version... so if there are any issues with it, let me know.
I finally got the package from Fedex 10 minutes ago... I opened it up to make sure that it wasn't broken, and it wasn't... so now it gets wrapped... MP and I are going to hang out tomorrow.... we're not 100% sure what we're going to do... but we'll figure it out....
the package was supposedly loaded on the truck at 3:01 am... we'll see if I ever receive the package... MP said last night that they probably broke it... which is probably likely...
