Day 59, 2023: Rain and more Rain

I ended up staying late at the office today. We had a few issues with our network due to some Cat5e Ethernet cables that no longer gigabit compliant. Yes, Ethernet cables do degrade with respect to its ability to deliver the bandwidth.

It is raining heavily again and in glad I get to stay in a warm and dry office.

Heavy Rain

Day 58, 2023: Rain and Associated Pain

I had an appointment at the dentist office today. For some reasons, I’m always anxious when I’m at the dentist clinic. There’s some “pain” associated with dentist for some reasons. *cough* root canal *cough*

Oh yes, it is raining again, really hard.

Day 56, 2023: Community Property

We went to see Steel Panther at Anaheim GardenWalk House of Blues . As we waited in line, the rain starts falling down. First it looked like a societal breakdown as the staffs made us stand in the rain. We decided to find shelter while maintaining the line. Score one for us, concertgoers.

My friends didn’t want to go through the opening bands, Tragedy (All Metal Tribute to the Bee Gees & Beyond) and Crobot. We didn’t get to the front of the stage because of that. We’re there only for Steel Panther.

It was amazing to see some of the same people we met at various Steel Panther shows. We all had a great time.

P.S. we get to talk to Steel Panther

Day 54, 2023: The number is “Three”

I decided to get some protective shells for the three M2 MacBook Airs. I finished setting them up 2 days ago. They will be deployed tomorrow.

By the way, it has been raining off and on all day. It feels a lot colder than the temperature thanks to the rain and wind chill.

Day 30, 2023: Visiting an Apple Store

I went to an Apple Store for a Genius Bar Appointment. One M1 MacBook Air is having trouble charging the battery. We were able to replicate the issue and parts were ordered. I decided to get another set of Power Adapter and USB-C Charge Cable, to see if the issue was not caused by the internal components in the MacBook Air.

I have swapped the Power Adapter and the Charge Cable in troubleshooting the issue. Unfortunately the result was inconclusive. I’m hoping the new Power Adapter and Charge Cable would give me better ideas on what’s going on with the MacBook Air.

By the way it was raining today, again.

Day 29, 2023: English Pub Food

It started raining when I went to a local “English Pub” to meet some friends. I ordered Chicken Tenders with chips (fries) and green peas. Apparently the green peas is the “English Pub” part in the meal according to my friend who used to work in London. Overall it was pretty good meal.

I also visited a few kittens at my friend’s house. They were spayed earlier in the week and recovering without any complications. they are currently wearing vests to prevent them from excessively licking the stitches.
