Why am I here now?

alexpgpThis is not philosophy. The reason I am sitting in front of my computer at... 2:30 am instead of asleep like a good citizen is having started awake a few minutes ago wondering: "Where is my JSC badge?"
Heh. Without it, I'd be stuck high and dry and unable to work at the MCC until Monday, which would definitely be a bad thing, considering as how the start of my first shift - during the day, if luck holds - is just under 30 hours away.
Fortunately, I found my badge in the first place I looked.
I abandoned my hardware late last night to let LapLink continue to operate. So far, all is well, although the data transfer rate is currently being reported as something less than 200 kb/sec, with 36,000 or so of about 127,000 files transferred (4.9 of 8.6 GB) after nearly 8 hours. Hopefully, another 5 hours or so ought to do it.
On the way down here to my office, I noticed there is fresh snow around the house, but did not pause to see if the white stuff is flying. It better not be by tomorrow afternoon, or we'll have to devise a plan B for getting to Houston.
Now let me see if I can go back to sleep for a couple of hours.
Cheers...
