Another ice storm is making its way through Raleigh. It started last night and is continuing until early Monday, according to the weather. Actually, this “storm” is pretty much nothing compared to the force of the previous ice storm that knocked down thousands of trees and killed power for many people in the state. This “ice storm” is more like an ice drizzle.

Speaking of ice storms and what not, I’m sure that there will be more cars showing up in the various body shops in the area. Thankfully, my car is before the queue of these new cars.

“True2Form” called me the other day to let me know that the parts that they were waiting on have finally come in (early), and that I should be getting my car back in two weeks or so.

Also, I got both the USB2/Firewire IDE enclosure and the Knuth book (also early) on Friday. Woo-hoo.

I also went back to the doc and was checked out again. They think it’s mostly muscle pain and not any spinal damage (thankfully). They gave me more prescription drugs to deal with the pain (somewhat), to relax, and to help me sleep better. Fun.

In addition to the medicine, the doctor recommended that I “cut out stress”, “relax”, “don’t sit for long at all”, “change the chair” that I sit in, and some other stuff. I laughed when she mentioned “cut out stress” and “don’t sit for long”, as, well, I really can’t aviod those two at work. *grin*

Speaking of work, there is going to be a bunch of cool stuff in the next release. I guess that always goes without saying, right? (:
