Ryan's Currently Unnamed Blog

Wheeee... just after midnight eastern I was able to place my upgrade order for the new Sidekick 3. Was hoping for a better deal on the upgrade price, but can't really complain too much. Express shipping for $15 (less then 5% of the price of the phone... doesn't bother me much!) should hopefully get it to me on Friday.

I (along with countless other nerds in this world) am hitting UPS's tracking page a bit too often to see when my phone is shipped and when its scheduled for delivery.

I know that UPS won't deliver it on Saturday... and Monday may or may not be a holiday for them. Oh, and I have a replacement hard drive for my server downtown. Almost exactly when i was ordering my SK3, one of the 4 drives failed. $90 later (wow.. hard drives got cheap! a Server quality 250GB hot swappable SATA drive.. wow...) and NewEgg has a replacement drive on the way. Gotta find some time to get that swapped out, probably on Saturday. Yay for the machine not even blinking through a hard drive failure!

Yaaay! a little bit of good news! Now if I can just get through all the other crap work I need to do so that I can enjoy SummerFest up in Milwaukee. (Sid Maudlin and Cowboy Mouth on Friday and Nine Inch Nails on Sunday) everything will be perfect!

Oh, and new EQ server opens today! guuuh... too much to do.. and not enough time! But yeah, back on the topic here.. my SideKick3 is inc! and I'm sure I'll be posting more about it.
