miles to go
I finally was able to make bonus points actually work for me: we'll stay at a Marriott after the Rush show next week (booyah!) and Sarah will get to fly Delta to Memphis to visit her mother in August. After all the travel I've done over the past several years, it feels nice to actually think that the bonus points are worth something after all. Hooray for modern corporate America!

It was a little jarring to go back to work today after the trial - I've really got to get myself back into the swing of things, because I've got a todo list which is starting to approach multiple pages. Eeek! Not the least of which is discovering which of the mysterious buggy conditions have been caused by the assorted security scans, tests, and requirements. sigh. There seems to be a windows security tool which (among other things) flushes the arp entry for the default gateway, and then won't let the host re-learn... I figure that someone forgot to check the "keep it working" box in the GUI.
I've always maintained that network guys and security guys are oil and water to each other: my mission is to get packets from A --> B, while the security guy's mission is to keep that from happening. Eventually the pendulum will come to rest in a sensible place, but that'll take a while.
