Well, it's labor day in Atlanta, so that means Dragon*Con is upon us (as well as a shit load of LSU fans to mix things up, should be great!). 

This year, the main guy seems to be Stan Lee.  Seeing as he's 88 and so accessible, I figure I'll spring for his autograph.  The ladies of Firefly will be there, with the exception of Gina Torres.  The schedule has now been published, so I have a couple nights of planning out which panels to hit.   I have to work half a day on Friday, so I should be able to hit the festivities just a bit late.

All day today, I'm looking forward to an early night.  Asleep by 10:30, that's my plan.  Early to bed, early to rise, all that good stuff and whatnot.

Took a little jaunt up to North Georgia on Sunday morning - did some zip lining through the forest.  It was a blast.  I thought I'd be a bit hesitant, but found myself just jumping off and trying little tricks here and there.  http://northgeorgiacanopytours.com/ if you're interested.  If any of you ever find yourself in mid to north Georgia, I would highly recommend this.  I really want to find out if they will allow someone in a sith costume to do this.

Had to work late last night, and the pup didn't want to be a good sleeper in his kennel last night, so I decided to work from home today.  Timmy (my puppy) was raising hell in his kennel today.  I am on conference calls from 7:30 - 2:30 today, and didn't want him barking away in the background.  I tethered him to the doorknob, put him in his bed, and gave him water and some toys.  I'm on a call, and next thing I notice, I'm hearing the sound of pee.  Turns out, the little bugger chewed through his leash, and then proceeded to pee on my PSP power adapter!

We've got this application in a development environment that writes files to an external file system.  Seems that in this development environment, the file share is no longer available, and the application development team had no idea.  So, the conversation went a little something like this:

Me - The share is gone, our wintel engineer confirmed that it doesn't exist

Project Manager (PM) -  what do you mean?  Where is it? <--This opens the door for me, and now I'm trying to keep a deadpan delivery...
