10,000 feet above, you sit on my ass I’ll sit on yours

So I will be entering my 4th day of Cisco IPV6 training today.  To be quite honest I am ready for it to be over.  This class is designed for someone that has their nose in routers 24/7 and in networks much larger than I support.

There have been so many acronyms thrown out I stopped counting once we reached triple digits.  I have been able to get what I wanted out of the class so far which is some basic understanding of IPV6 addressing and the fundamental differences between it and IPV4.  All the other stuff is heard and quickly forgotten.  If I ever have the need to dig deeper into some of the higher level things that are being discussed I have a massive, bible size, course book to refer back to.

I mean seriously, would you want to listen to someone talk about “OSPFv3 IPsec ESP Authentication and Encryption”?

So last night I returned to yoga.  Class went ok.  There was an awkward moment where the instructor told us to partner up for a cobra pose exercise.  Well everyone else had partnered up besides the one other guy in the class who happened to be right next to me, so we were stuck with each other.

The one person laid on the ground while the other sat on a pillow that was across the ass, pinning the hips on the ground.  Then as the “bottom” arched up, the top was supposed to grab the shoulders and help the stretch.

Yes it was weird but I just rolled with it.  The next time a partner scenario is mentioned I will be more aggressive in grabbing someone of the opposite sex.

Today Ali flies out to PA again.  I am picking up her and the dogs, dropping her off at the airport and then returning home for another day of over my head training coordinated with the first of 5 days of dog sitting.
