I have the next week off between spring and summer semesters, so I want to:

Catch up on my filing. I have a stack of crap that needs to be properly dealt with.

Clean my pig-pen office again. (not really that bad, just cluttered)

Take a few text books down and sell them back to the school if they don't sell via the bulletin boards.

Meet w/my voc-rehab counselor.

Finish pruning my shrubs and mow the yard.

4. Run cable through attic
5. Run and bury cat5 cable

hope youre going to use the type rated for burying. the standard isnt rated for that, being a UTP cable. water damage will kill it in less than a year, and if theres any extra compression you could have probs also.
