I'm about to start school again after 20 years away... A bit nervous. Still, my job was slowly killing me, and I really feel like I can do this.

Also, I accomplished a nerd thing which I am proud of.

Don't leave us hanging! What was the nerd thing you did?

There's this server software called Proxmox, and this distributed storage software for it called Ceph, and I moved my first servers from running on bare metal to running in Proxmox on Ceph. Many people have done it before, but I just feel so nerdy and proud having it run that way. I had trouble re-assigning some disks from LVM to the Ceph.

I am doing an MBA now, the last time I studied was 13 years ago. I am finding that I am really enjoying learning a lot. In fact, I never enjoyed learning back when I was in school.
