back to work....

So, thanksgiving came and went, a very nice (but clearly not long enough) extended weekend came and went, and now it's back to work.

It's always kinda hard to pick up the threads after being away for so long (4 whole days without a thought or care about work), so I spent some time today just figuring out what's going on. Our monitoring program managed to generate ~ 35,000 messages over the last couple of days, so I wasn't even able to get to my regular list of stuff to do for several hours.

I also just found out that a group from Juarez, Mexico, has been added to our domain. fun fun fun! Now I have extra work queued up for the next 2-3 weeks...

On the happy side of things, CJ learned a couple of new tricks over the weekend... One is his new dance move: Whenever he hears a song he likes, he will bounce up and down *and* swing left and right! Now that's coordination! He's got more dancing skill on his pinky than I have in my whole body...
