- Work: Gone Unix-hardcore. Our team currently leads Unix training for other infra teams. Shell/Perl scripting occupies a large part of the, er, curriculum. I’m “re-learning” Perl. I’m also amazed as to how open source is being leveraged here. I lurve open source.
- Family: Prior to a change of shift sked, I go on an extended off-shift period of four days. Like, wow! What better way to start that four-day weekend than to slooowly fry in my own oil (not a nice imagery there) here at the airport. Hooray. Love the company, though, as always.
- Others: I still haven’t gotten around to reading Good Omens. Haven’t watched Harry Potter, too. (Why bother? I heard it’s not as good as the book, anyway.) And, I haven’t been online in a while. Smart 3G’s a big bummer. Been getting lots of connection errors lately. Hope it stabilise soon.

I’ve recently decided to get a PLDT WeRoam prepaid account. Unfortunately, when I was about to purchase a wireless card unit in one of their resellers, I found out that they do not carry cards for the ExpressCard slot that my notebook (Dell Inspiron e1505) has.
That left me with the following options to look for:
- PCMCIA-to-USB adapters.
- PCMCIA-to-ExpressCard adapters.
- USB GSM/GPRS/EDGE/HSDPA modem.
- Another provider (Globe Visibility, which carries the above).
Hay, the woes of going mobile.
