alexpgpNot much to report.
I've been keeping my head down with the current translation, though I could not avoid explaining some basic accounting (which I don't understand too well) to Galina (who understands accounting even less), which means I'll have to be particularly attentive when I look at what she's done, later.
Amazingly, I've forgotten a passphrase to a file I used to use all the time, and it's not a nice thing. I can very likely reconstruct all of what I need (I've already recovered about 80% of it), but still, it'd be nice to see what else has been squirreled away in the file.
I managed to squeeze in the annual NASA IT Security training today, and passed (for another year), and the results are back from my visit to the NASA clinic (nothing clear cut, I might want to consult with my doctor, etc.).
Natalie gave me an old machine of hers, and I'm just wondering if it'll fire up if I just install the hard drives from my old desktop, whose motherboard went off to that great scrap heap in the sky a little while ago. Previous experience says I should at least have the OS install CD on hand when I do this, and... well... said CD is not "on hand" (I must go look for it).
Tonight's Yuri's Night party was downtown, and I just wasn't in the mood: there are too many things to be done around here and downtown is - after all - downtown.
And to top it all off, it's Thursday already! Yikes!
Cheers...
