past few days i have been really busy… so busy i’m getting headaches…

the other day the system i manage was getting a DOS attack. it was being bombarded with like 70 messages per min and was overloading the server…

Luckily it was coming from a host we knew so it was a matter of getting E Mis to sort out the issue. but in between we tried to block the ip but didn’t work cos the way the firewall is set up… in the end it got sorted… now there’s a backlog of 200,000 msg it needs to process so that will take the whole weekend to catch up…. then today the interface went down didn’t get it working till 4pm….

anyway i was so out of it today… went into tesco to buy a sandwich… was starying at the shelf for ages thinking why did i come in here again…. i just couldn’t figure out why i was just standing in front of a shelf… then it hit me… the reason why i stopped was there were no sandwiches on the shelf… they had been moved the entire section….

just can’t believe it took minute to register it
