My right shoulder hurts a great deal today... two thwacks from a bastard sword right on the point of my shoulder. The irritating thing is that I *have* armour there, but it's not pointed to anything, so it slips.
Grr. I need to make that gambeson As Soon As Possible.
Anyway, I did end up going down to the fort last weekend. Pictures on my website as usual. It was fun, my lower back hurt a fair amount afterwards, and I recently had a nightmare involving shovels.
I finally connected a monitor to our Baronial mail server and did some work on it. I compiled and installed SSH (which was more painful than usual), disabled some stuff, applied patches, etc. It's a slow, old machine, but it's not doing much.
Work is going rather normally, my boss has informed me that my position will go "permanent" towards the end of July, almost a month later than we were expecting. This is mostly due to various people ont doing things. Being a temp for 6 months sucks, I want health insurance.
I ordered World War II Online the other day, and it has shipped, yay. I'm going to need a much beefier computer to run it well, but that was in the works anyway.
I suppose that's about it for the raw news, things are going well with my life and all... I called my parents on father's day, which was vaguely amusing. I actually got to talk to my brother... that was cool.
