So my walk in was 997 steps or something like that. Well it is 3:10 and I now have a total of 1792 steps. Wow, a couch potato is supposed to have 3000-5000 steps a day, and I walk a mile round trip for my commute to work.
Crazy.

Getting Warmer
It was a balmy -1 on the walk in. Felt tons warmer. Can't wait for the 20 degrees that is supposed to be coming soon.
In other news, I started wearing a Pedometer. My walk in was roughly 1000 steps by itself!! Hopefully I am going to walk off the pounds. :)

Brrrrrr......COLD
So my walk to work was a little cold this morning. -4 degrees. Before windchill.
I had estimated that my winter gear was good to about -5 degrees. So I'm glad that I was close. I now think it is good to -10. I wear an American Eagle Snowboarding coat (with hood and zips up above chin), a balclava made of thinsulate, a stocking cap over that. A scarf around my neck under the coat, and a scarf around my mouth on the outside of everything else. Plus some $25 snow boots. Works well for the 1/2 mile walk to work.
So STEBowl was great fun over the weekend. I really had fun being one of the ref's, and seeing some friends.
Pictures here (Thanks DJ for taking them!!!)

What a crazy night
Tuesday night I installed a new driver for my Logitech trackball. When I got up Wednesday morning MY MAC HAD CRASHED!!!!! This has never happened. I force rebooted it and did what I needed to do in the morning. Then I went to work.
I asked Rachel to shut the computer down just to make sure that stuff wasn't screwed up.
So I immediately suspected the logitech driver, and sure enough the web is littered with complaints about the last THREE versions of the software (I was 4 old). So I uninstalled it. The computer was acting wierd, but I had to run to the hardware store.
I get home and I have a Kernel Panic on the screen. Arrgghh. And the USB bus isn't working (including my internal bluetooth). So I find my system disk and load up and the USB bus works now, but my 7 port USB 2.0 hub doesn't. Grrr. My hub is fried.
I downloaded the last system update that I had installed, and now the USB bus is working again, but the Bluetooth still isn't. And the computer didn't crash overnight.
GRRRRRR. I just rebuilt the laptop this summer. I hope that I don't need to do it again for a stupid trackball software (That I don't even need. MacOSX regonizes all of the buttons automatically (except I can't change the scroll wheel press from anything except "click").
