Today was just unbelievably dumb.

I got to work a little early so I could upgrade my workstation, which I thought would be a quickish thing, but nooo. Kubuntu had other ideas. The GUI install bombed out and borked my debconf. I rebooted and X &/or KDE were borked such that I had no GUI. So I ended up spending about 45 minutes “fixing” it and re-doing the upgrade, which finally completed successfully. Except for the fact I have no sound again. Grr.

Then there was workstuff. People’s sites overloading servers, yaddayadda. Busybusybusy.

Bart called me in late morning/early afternoon to let me know some asshole busted off the antenna on his car sometime last night – likely someone from our apt complex but possibly just a passing vandal.

Then I got home and retrieved the mail, which contained our electric bill from LBWL. Which is due tomorrow. I don’t know why we’re just now getting it since the “date printed” date on it says Nov 19, and I’m assuming it came from just across town or wherever LBWL gets them printed. The envelope also was not sealed at all. Not making me happy. I paid it online just now, hopefully that’s good enough.
