Things are getting down to the nitty-gritty at my office. Next Friday, the 23rd, is the day we’re supposed to close the doors for good. I still have a couple of major tasks remaining to take down the local network and ship all the big hardware off to another location, and then it’ll just be putting out any remaining fires and helping with the mucking out.

Once I shut down the network, we’ll be offline, and that means that I won’t be able to post to this site during the workday, as is my usual practice. Hey, don’t kid yourself…something like 75% of all Internet traffic emanating from the United States occurs during normal business hours. Indeed, I don’t know how I would be able to put up with the mindless tedium of working in a Big Corporation without the ability to spend time at work online. But I am about to find out, at least for a few days.

Between the lack of connectivity during the day, and our brutally busy extra-curricular schedule in the evenings, I’m not likely to post much, if at all, next week. Just so you don’t think I’ve died from bird flu or something.
