Y7 D344

The best thing about this week so far has been waking up without an alarm. I slept in pretty late on Monday but yesterday and today woke up around 5:15 which isn't bad without a glaring noise in my head. I have even been able to go to bed a little later because of it. Went to bed around 11:15 last night. Man some days I wish this could be like this all the time.

I just tried something new with the media server this morning. I wasn't able to play .FLAC files before on iTunes but with Plex it reads them just fine. Huge difference in the bit rate on FLAC over MP3. Like 844k to 320k difference. Truer depth and sound reproduction. Score one more for Plex.

Got a lot accomplished yesterday. Managed to coordinate and take care of updating all of our Tableau classes. We now have a 1/2 day fundamental class, a one day intermediate, and a two day advanced class. Today I am going to toy with the idea of a 1 day expert class. I can think of a few things to put into there but how it all comes together is what I want to play around with first.

Had a nice indian meal for dinner including coconut chicken curry, palek paneer, and naan. We both ate too much naan though and we felt it all night. We took a ride to Best Buy to look at something for work. My tablet is getting a little long in the tooth. I have used it multiple times over the last few weeks while on the road and it is showing its age. I have an iPad mini which the company bought for me 3 years ago and while it works fine, it's too small for it to be practical sometimes and it's slow when I push it. I am looking at the Samsung ones and it's not easy to choose. There's the S2, the A, and the E. I thought the A would be okay until I saw it in person. Real shitty screen. Funny enough, the E which is cheaper has a nicer screen. The S2 is what I want, but it's $500 and that's beyond the budget limit I feel. The A was $299 and was okay. The E is only $199 and I don't think anyone will balk at that. I need to report back my findings to my bosses and see what they say about my budget limit. If there's no push back, I will get the $500 one, but we shall see. I will also add a 128gb micro SD to either one I buy which means internal space is not an issue.

Watched a little tv and relaxed. We had both hoped for the sex, but the naan had other ideas for our bellies. I think tonight we should skip dinner all together and go straight for dessert. Boom. I'm funny dammit.
