If I could open my mouth...

I haven't updated in over a month. Oh well.

Haven't really been up to that much. I've still been running. I've gotten my time down to below 14 minutes. I've also measured the distance and it is about 1.96 miles...not terrible.

Guitar building has been going slowly, and I still haven't done a "real" neck yet. I'm too worried of screwing up, I guess. I've got a stack of pine necks that I'm working on right now. So far, they're roughly cut to shape. I need to cut fret slots, drill some holes, plug the skunk stripe and sand a transition, also shape the fretboard. Then it's the part I really like: spokeshave! The fret slots are the only part I'm still worried about. I really need to figure that one out well...otherwise the whole thing is just pointless. I have a few ideas, but I might wind up spending some money to buy a fret miter box.

Work is fine. Our office moved to a mostly-cubicle environment from a mostly-office environment. In a way, it's nicer, because I have my own "space"...I used to share an office with another guy on the team; in another way, though, that space is less private (you can hear conversations from a few rows over with relative ease). However, the thing I really like is that our teams feel (to me, at least) a bit more cohesive. Not only do we sit in little cube areas, but the teams we interact with most tend to be in the areas bordering ours...so things feel a bit more effective, in that way. Plus, the new building is a lot nicer than the old one.

I think I had a sinus infection earlier this week, but I'm not sure. My sinuses just felt like hell and my nose was running clear junk for a few days. Then the sinus pressure eased and giant chunks of green stuff came out when I blew my nose. Now I'm better. Erin got sick right after I got better, though...but we're pretty sure hers was just allergies...her symptoms weren't the same or as severe as mine.

I'm getting my computer set up again. Fedora 11 is pretty sweet.
