WWDC, SVN & More [10 Jun 2008|01:08pm]
[ mood | hot ]

It's been a busy couple of days. Mostly working from home, just researching and getting things together for people. Yesterday I put in like 2.5 hours, today about an hour, maybe a bit more. I just can't handle this heat, I am about to just go sit in the bath tub or something because this is ridiculous.

The horses are pretty pissed off too, they're dying out there. It's just way to hot. Currently there's a tornado watch in effect for Vermont, they always say that, but nothing happens. I mean this is Vermont, come on. I would be very surprised to see such a thing here. I've been enjoying the ice though, we got this like no brander cones and they're actually really good believe it or not. I've mostly been staying indoors too, even though it's still way to hot inside. We've given the horses baths, so hopefully that should help cool them down momentarily. Nippet was being a complete asshole about, so I gave a few good smacks, didn't really seem to help though...even Buddy was better about it then him was I found to be unusual. Definitely haven't been riding them in the heat, hopefully it cools down soon because I really need to get riding.

I've been trying to figure out if I can get into the Equine Science program at UVM, of course it's taking forever...I might as well as make some phone calls, because these people don't seem to check their email. I have a feeling even if it is open to me, I won't be able to get in because I didn't take calculus or chemistry in college, in high school I did do chemistry, but screw calculus. I really dislike mathematics, of course you really need to know if for that program, so we'll see.

I've finally gotten Subversion up and running and I really like it. I'm just a bit annoyed that I have another step in my process, instead of just making changes to a file, uploading it to a server and then synching it across the servers, I now have to make changes, commit them to Subversion, then upload it to a server and synch it across the other servers. So it's like an extra step, but it makes sense, it just sucks. But I am sure it'll come in handy when it comes time to update the whole code base and such. Or when I break something I can just go back a version. I am using this new OS X application, Version, which is WOW. It definitely makes my journey into using Subversion quite easy.

WWDC Thoughts )

Hrmm, so besides roasting alive here, things have been well, I've been watching a lot of HorseGirlTV and catching up on old (we're talking 2005/2006) issues of various magazines. Haha I am a slow reader lol.

I believe that's all for now, I am going to get something cool to drink/eat.
