Clearing off Ubuntu

Well I am in the process of clearing off my stuff from the Ubuntu partitions, while a great Desktop version of linux, I didn’t like my options for compiling things like Apache, etc. granted with some work I could probably get Apache/MySQL/PHP to compile, but honestly, I didn’t wanna sit around for a month or 3 doing so. My focus has been on security lately not re-vamping Debian(ish) distro’s to compule Apache properly - so I think I am heading back to Fedora Core (4 to be exact) - just have to stort through 200GB of data, logs, etc. see what I need to keep. Plus once I go gnome, I want to give a manual compile of Gnome 2.12 a try, looks lovely.

Anywhoo - a good last week, good sleep, good progress on projects (CMC now has custom RSS feeds for all areas) - and made some headway on HappyPalm.com making a come back, found a great look, working on tweaking it out and making a PSD or two for the crew to use for high-light articles and such - but this week I do expect more dev time as I am working on some more code for CMC, FH, and HP - lots of code to work on, so little time.

Parents fly out Tuesday for Washington, prayers are appriciated for their safe travel - they are going up to see my grandparents and other members of my dad’s family, as he is a Washington state native - so they are flying up for 7 days - which does mean I have the house all to myself.. how many parties can I have in 7 days? Hrm…

One other thing I wanna ask you guys to pray on - is I have a job offer on the table, as it stands I have been told it’s $30k a year, full benefits, which would indeed be nice, would improve my overall income, but may limit my time some balancing TN/FH with a 8hr job, but I am waiting to see if it’s even going to be a reality, I’ll know more the 20th (aka Tuesday) if it does pan out, it could be nice to have health insruance again - maybe go in for a checkup - have all my teeth made gold… so many fun options But time will tell.

Anywhoo - I am gonna go back to sorting files for a little while here, then its onto bed, hopefully at the very least I can get Fedora going tonight, and have it sinched up by tomorrow so I can get SSH back up and running with a firewall/bfd so I can remote console from the office again.. but one thing at a time
