Aliens are neat too, as is CS

It’s been a week since my last post, and not much has been going on. Last Tuesday, Andrea and I decided to go to Methuen to see Men in Black 2 at 11pm. We decided that somewhat randomly around 10. I thought it was pretty good, not great, and not as good as the first one, but still fairly entertaining, and probably better than Reign of Fire.
I’ve been doing a little bit of wardriving with my laptop, since I got dstumbler installed. I picked up a bunch of AP’s on the way home from work, much more than I was expecting, since 101 isn’t exactly packed with companies. For some reason I can only use the card with dstumbler in prism2 monitor mode, anything else doesn’t pick up anything. I assume this means it can’t actively probe for AP’s, just look for ones that are broadcasting themselves. Ah well.
On Saturday, Matt, Jason, and I played CS for a while on the F.o.R servers again. We did well. Matt has some more details in his journal. Jason and I also updated Hindenburg to start using Maildir instead of mbox for mail, and started using courier-imap for IMAP and POP3 service. It seems to be working well, and I haven’t heard any complaints yet.
Yesterday Andrea and I went down to Boston to find me some nice clothes for use in New York. We went to one store and she made me try on stuff for what seemed like hours. I have no clue how long it actually was. We eventually settled on a fairly nice shirt and pants and belt and shoes. It was horrifically expensive.
Tonight I’m heading over to Nick’s house to help him install FreeBSD on his laptop. Hopefully it’ll be smoother than the install on my laptop, which was a pain. Matt’s supposed to be there too. Should be a good time.
Thursday morning I leave for NYC with Andrea and her parents. I’ve only ever been there for a few hours at a time before, mostly in a convention center. It should be interesting. I kindof wish I had an iPaq or something so I could go warwalking, but perhaps that’s a little too geeky. I’m bringing my laptop with me, and hopefully I’ll be able to update here each day.
Oh, and anyone tried that blue Pepsi yet? What’s it like?
