[07:31] <Captainkrtek> Sammamish
[07:31] <Captainkrtek> on the plateau
[07:31] <valorie> cool
[07:31] <Captainkrtek> you?
[07:31] <valorie> I grew up in Issaquah
[07:31] <Captainkrtek> ahh cool :)
[07:31] <valorie> and now live out near Black Diamond
[07:31] <Captainkrtek> gotcha
[07:31] <valorie> your area has grown up so much I hardly recognize it
[07:31] <Captainkrtek> yeah very
[07:32] <valorie> a whole city
[07:32] <Captainkrtek> quite busy up here
[07:32] <valorie> where there were cows
[07:32] <Captainkrtek> barely have to leave the plateau
[07:32] <valorie> and a couple of houses
[07:32] <Captainkrtek> the house i'm in is an older one, built in the 80s
[07:32] <valorie> older, lol
[07:32] <Captainkrtek> lol
[07:32] <Captainkrtek> well not like the new suburbia
[07:32] <Captainkrtek> I have an acre of a yard :P
[07:32] <valorie> we're such americans!
[07:32] <Captainkrtek> not 10ft^2
[07:33] <valorie> my parents-in-law and my husband built a nice house on Pine Lake
[07:33] <Captainkrtek> so what work do you do in the community (IE: Projects and such)
[07:33] <Captainkrtek> ahh cool :)
[07:33] <valorie> back in the 60s
[07:34] <valorie> sold that and created The Herbfarm out in Fall City
[07:34] <Captainkrtek> oh neat
[07:34] <valorie> now the remains of that are the Herbfarm restaurant
[07:35] <valorie> no longer Fall City
[07:35] <valorie> that's run by my husband's brother and his wife
[07:35] <Captainkrtek> never been there myself
[07:35] <valorie> it's worth it for a special occasion
[07:35] <valorie> rather spendy
[07:35] <Captainkrtek> gotcha
[07:36] <valorie> my daughter sets the tables
[07:36] <Captainkrtek> heh
[07:36] <Captainkrtek> cool
[07:36] <valorie> I'm a Kubuntu member, and do some community work and documentation
[07:36] <Captainkrtek> nice
[07:36] <valorie> I work mostly in Amarok
[07:36] <Captainkrtek> I do documentation as well
[07:36] <valorie> and starting some work in KDE
[07:36] <Captainkrtek> ubuntu and gnome docs
[07:36] <valorie> right now, admin for GSoC
[07:37] <Captainkrtek> nice
[07:37] <Captainkrtek> im a sys admin as well
[07:37] <Captainkrtek> for a financial company in bellevue
[07:37] <valorie> quite enjoyable working with the students and mentors
[07:37] <althara> I just heard about the herbfarm for the first time like a montha go

[07:37] <valorie> it's a beautiful evening
[07:37] <Captainkrtek> well that jobs starts soon hopefully
[07:38] <valorie> you are juggling a lot, Captainkrtek
[07:38] <Captainkrtek> yeah
[07:38] <Captainkrtek> not too bad
[07:38] <Captainkrtek> work in bellevue has been slow
[07:38] <Captainkrtek> although last week a printer stopped working and while i was out they bought a new one and thought it was plug and play
[07:39]  * Captainkrtek facepalms
[07:39] <valorie> what happens, does it freeze the network or something?
[07:39] <Captainkrtek> nahh
[07:39] <Captainkrtek> all the computers werent configured...
[07:39]  * valorie knows little of the mysteries of sysadmin
[07:39] <Captainkrtek> with the new one
[07:40] <althara> hahaha
[07:40] <Captainkrtek> so I had to manually go to each workstation and re-set it up
[07:40] <Captainkrtek> i have to go in tomorrow afternoon and finish it up, fix faxing
[07:40] <Captainkrtek> sigh :P
[07:40] <althara> that's why I hate corporate it
[07:40] <Captainkrtek> meh we aren't too corporate
[07:40] <althara> and why my company only dabbled in it
[07:40] <valorie> right now we're trying to get a Geeknik going
[07:40] <Captainkrtek> good people, they just don't know what I do
[07:40] <Captainkrtek> although payday is next week
[07:41] <Captainkrtek> so I can't complain :D
