Put ESXi on the Mac mini (Mid 2010), which previously was hosting websites. Right now have a Debian, CentOS and Windows 10 guests on there, having some trouble getting an OS X installed. Of course, it's an unsupported machine, but everything else seems to be working on it. Definitely cool having right now 3 machines all within one. Although performance isn't anything to write home about. Next up configuring things correctly, maybe mirroring the current virtual host over at Linode locally as a backup, and maybe to see if I can go back to hosting locally. And try some other stuff that I should know about. Nice to have a Windows box I can connect to going forward, for whatever reason. Jackson came down with a stomach bug, which made for the end of sleep training. But he was getting there. He goes down without a fight, but up early and fighting in the morning. Then he managed to get my mom sick, they took him out to Woodstock for the end of last week. But he's on the mend. Went to the Legoland Discovery Center Chicago in Schaumberg on Saturday with Lucy on the way out to Woodstock. Fun. Nice having lots to build with. A nice way to spend the afternoon. Wiped Lucy out too, she fell asleep on the drive. Brought back the Legos from Woodstock too, so now we've got lots to build with.

Had my Surly Pacer stolen out of my garage early Tuesday morning. Ended up leaving the garage door open all night, so when a guy came riding by at 4:15am, he walked in and rode out on my bike with no issues. Filed a police report, reported to chicago.stolenbike.org and the bike shop, saved the footage. My own fault, so finally getting sensors added to the garage doors to tie into the security system so we get alerts when the garage door opens and closes and hopefully we can add checks to let us know when the garage door has been open or is still open when we go to bed. It's the 2nd time actually that I've noticed the garage door was open. Which sucks. I blame it on our keychain remotes. Anyway, not sure when I'll get a replacement, not sure if I want to try and claim it, to increase our premiums or not. Especially considering it's my fault. Or, at least, I made it super easy to steal. In the meantime I've asked my parents to bring back the Dynamic Bicycles Sprint just so I have a bike to commute on again. I won't trick it out as much, but I'll have to get something on it so I can carry stuff back and forth. And fenders. Maybe I'll go back to my original commuting bags with either the Ortlieb panniers or the Arkel Tail Rider. Kind of surprised it took this long for the bike to get stolen. Not sure what the next bike will be, but leaning towards a Surly Straggler, less road more commuter/utilitarian/do anything especially considering all the stuff I put on it. Jackson's all better, going to restart sleep training tomorrow. Mom seems good too. Last couple of days I thought I might be coming down with something, but nope. Even went in to work today, a Thursday, my usual work from home day. I need a couple days next week to be around for additional security sensors on the garage door and an insurance inspection. 3535 N. Reta Ave. Unit 4 still hasn't sold, so that's another reason to hold off on a new bike.
