I have been attempting, not always successfully, to keep my to-do list here in the wiki; I think Esther Dyson has explained the theoretical benefits of this better than I've been able to. For more explanation, see /strategy.

The List

  • Josh
    • 2007-10-03 finish application to Albemarle people
    • 2007-10-03 keep sending email to Durham One Call (once or twice a day), and call if it bounces. (Trying to get msg to Jill Hoffman.)
    • 2007-10-03 make list of what else needs to be done, and prioritize. Go to school and bug people? Just need to have a list of all the things we could or "should" be doing, and then see what we can actually be doing.
    • 2007-10-03 I'm totally lost about where we are with the whole TEACCH thing. I guess the next thing is to respond to her email? Mention about the Albemarle people wanting TEACCH's evaluation.
  • vbz.net - development
    • thorns-in-side (hampering operations):
      • 2007-10-03 stock display is much too slow
        • finish migrating related queries to MySQL (almost done with this)
      • 2007-10-03 catalog building is also ridiculously slow; investigate fixability
    • migration - urgent things which can't be done until resolved
      • 2007-10-03 topic maintenance
        • find old version of Access db which still has ID_Parent field in topics table
        • migrate data to MySQL
      • 2007-10-03 image maintenance
        • figure out shortest path to getting this working
  • creative
  • miscellaneous / favors / learning & experimenting
  • housework
    • Pay Sandy's bills (once monthly)
    • Car resurrection
      • Benz
        • Try to re-assemble repaired motor
        • Find source for replacement motor
        • Find replacement plastic thingy
        • Wiring for CD/radio
        • Air system
      • Nissan
        • Wiring for CD/radio
    • Shelves (need to agree on which ones are important/acceptable)
      • hallway upstairs, to replace particle board shelves
      • bathroom downstairs, over doorway
      • more boards for mini-shelf in upstairs bathroom?

The Log

A log of what I actually spend time on. Note that some things may get preference because they help me to relax; if I don't relax, then I get all avoidant about the stuff that isn't relaxing and I end up neither relaxing nor getting any work done.

current

  • 2007-10-07 Sun - themes: PW
    • email invoice to Lisa@S&S
      • ask if they need anything more formal
      • check how things are going
      • ask about keys (mention stopping by on Tuesday)
    • test Durham One email again, to see if they've fixed it
  • 2007-10-09
    • picked up check and key from Sage & Swift
    • bike ride ended abruptly with punctured tire on S's bike
    • voted (Catotti, Brown)
    • upgraded Gonzo to 7.04
  • 2007-10-10
    • spent day dealing with tech issues, mostly on Rizzo:
      • munged hard drive
      • Samba not working quite right (Mel's computer fighting for Master Browser)
      • dnsmasq needs to be on Rizzo, not Gonzo, dadgummit

past

  • 2007-10-03 - themes: VBZD, JS:
    • Migrated most of the needed vbz queries for improving stock-form speed
    • grocery shopping (unavoidable)
    • Filled out most of Albemarle form
    • Emailed Durham One Call to try to track down Jill Hoffman
    • Revamped to-do list: new strategy
    • Called Durham One because the email bounced; asked after-hours operator to report the problem
    • Emailed Elizabeth Byars at TEACCH
  • 2007-10-04 - themes: JS, PW, VBZO; +VBZD
    • re-emailed Durham One, repeatedly, including from GMail.
      • all emails bounced, so I called and left my name and phone number.
    • had to reinstall MS Office on Vincent because of Gonzo being temporarily invisible to some machines.
      • Copied install CD to Rizzo and installed from there this time. Should be able to get rid of install image on Gonzo at this point.
    • shipped 2 vbz orders
    • updated stock table to use remote queries; although remote cbx query still not working, just using the sub-queries remotely seems to make enough of a difference, and table display is now much quicker
  • 2007-10-05 Fri - themes: PW, HW, CR
  • 2007-10-06 Sat - +JS, +CR
    • headache all morning
    • Josh near-escape
    • farmer's market
    • dishes again
    • artwork for woozalia.com
