4th place so far\u2026<\/p>\n
643k steps and that only got us 4th place. The leading team, the Holy Walkamolies<\/em>, has 161696 steps on us and all that after I walked my feet raw last week. I am determined to lead my team to victory, though. So up until now, I already walked 60000 steps and after work today I will go to the pharmacy to get cushions for my toes because I have blisters in the most annoying places of all. Once my toes stop bothering me, I will keep going and going and going like one of those freaking bunnies out of the Duracell commercials<\/a>.<\/p>\n I want to go (as in walk) to the Dublin Zoo on Saturday and walk back home, as well. I\u2019m hoping to score another 60k at least on the weekend if I go to Greystones on Sunday, maybe. Even with some of my team members hanging behind \u2013 and I still think they\u2019re doing a good job \u2013 I believe we can gain on the Walkamolies<\/em> and even let the other two teams eat dust because we\u2019re not too far away from them with 674k and 690k respectively. I\u2019ll keep you updated on how it goes.<\/p>\n On Tuesday I sat in on a meeting with a guy from BT<\/a> together with Eamonn and Emmet. System Dynamics wants to move their servers into a cloud environment. Well, sort of. The plan is actually to move the virtual machines onto new servers, connected with new switches, stored on new disks and stored in BT\u2019s datacenter. I created a little draft with Visio to show what System Dynamics thinks how the setup will have to be and brought it to the meeting. My colleagues liked the way I did it and I listened in on them discussing different possibilities to set this thing up. Nothing is decided, yet and I believe I won\u2019t be here by the time something \u201cinteresting\u201d happens in that department but we\u2019ll see how far this thing goes before I\u2019m gone.<\/p>\n On the topic of being gone: It\u2019s just over 2 weeks now until I have to go home. I\u2019m happy I\u2019ve seen as much as I have but there is still a lot left that I haven\u2019t seen so there will be a vacation that has to be spent here within the next years. Something I\u2019m already looking forward to. Tomorrow is the SD BBQ and the infamous Treasure Hunt<\/em>. All I care about is steps, food and drinks and interesting conversations. Which is pretty much what it is. \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n Cheers, 4th place so far\u2026 643k steps and that only got us 4th place.

\nThe Problem with the flight home is the time it was booked for. It leaves at 7.10 in the morning and that is a terrible time to get to the airport in any convenient way, at least in Dublin and I don\u2019t want to take a taxi, let alone have to get up at freaking 3 in the morning. So I\u2019m actually planning on spending my night at the airport with the guys and a couple of beers. Probably not Guinness, though because it\u2019s just too heavy and also not quite convenient to drink from the can It\u2019s much more likely to be Budweiser or Heineken. Hell, if I get a good offer on Carlsberg, it\u2019s going be that for sure. I\u2019m not sure what we\u2019ll do for dinner but there is supposed to be a McDonald\u2019s that\u2019s open 24\/7 at the airport. I\u2019m pretty sure that\u2019ll do.<\/p>\n
