To be ill is no good when you got so much things to do that you can’t really get your head around all of them. Right now I am at work, but I don’t feel too well today either. The problem is that if I stay home because I am ill I feel guilt because the company needs my presence, especialy when one of the others are gone to a course and so on. Maybe I shouldn’t have gone to work when I feel ill, but I’d rather take an early evening today than getting yelled at for staying home when ‘not sick enough’ as my boss puts it so softly. I may quote: ‘A little flu is not enough around here. Do you see me staying home if I get a little fever? No, I come to work anyways, so should you’. A piece of Dilbert comes to my mind. The quote goes: ‘You incentive clod’. You may have seen that one elsewere, like ehm, slashdot, no?
As you all may not know I stayed home yesterday with 39 degrees fever and did not feel too good at all. I slept most of the day and did not feel better until around 8 pm. Tried to stay awake some to turn my head back into a working modus without much luck.
When not ill I work a lot with the computerparty AuLAN:Heat these days. We’re about to reach 100 people who have signed up to attend the party and it’s still two and a half month until the doors open. That’s very good 🙂 Most work right now are being done in the sector of making good technology partners to provide the attendees the best party experience ever in Trondheim. One of the things we’re looking at is running an open source vs closed source panel debate with people from such companies as Microsoft, Sun, IBM, Novell and organisations like Skolelinux, Debian and the Ubuntu-project. That’ll be very fun!
I also want to take time to get some work done for TLUG now in December and today I’m emailing the TLUG mailinglist to raise interest into a little Saturday demo at one of the shoppingstreets during the holiday shoppingsprees. I will sugest somewere around the 13th, as there will be hundreds, if not thousands of people around. I hope someone will join and that we can get some CD’s available to hand out along with some flyers about TLUG, SPIST, Skolelinux and Linux in general. Anyone want to join? Give us a heads up at
