Productivity

Had a rather productive day today.

Arrived at work at 0830 and proceeded to solve the worlds problems, well not actually the world, but a couple various depts on campus were happy with me today.

Left work promptly at noon and had lunch with my mom and brothers.
Following this, we drove to Dallas and crashed the Apple store, where I picked up a new iPod to replace the one that died on me over Christmas.

80gb iPod in white, 2yr extended warranty, protective case, education discount, 10% off for trading in the old iPod, plus uncle sams sales tax brought the total to $461 and change.
coulda been worse and I fully expect to have over 2yrs of service out of this iPod as well.

Arrived home around 1530 and got back to work on the alternator on the 4Runner. Discovered it wouldn't quite fit so a trip to the parts house was in order for a persuasive device. some would call it a file. a few minutes later, I had the alternator bolted in place and verified to be working.
That accomplished it was time to replace the aging and no longer brilliant headlights. Got those swapped and realigned to point correctly and what do ya know, I can see!

finish the day off with mom's hot cinnamon rolls and thats what I call a good day.

Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!
