Way too much Cisco

in CCNA & CCENT
Well a buddy of mine came over the other day and it must have been 1:00 in the afternoon and I was sawing logs cuz I stayed up till 6:00am on my lab. He tries to aka "shake n wake" me and I mumbled on about the default route...
He then starts yelling at me saying "GET UP!" Then I yelled back "NOOO, you gotta redistribute that damn default route!!"
I finally woke up and when he told me what I said I laughed...
I've spent countless hours on my ccie lab lately and you know its getting to you when all you can think about before you go to bed is how you can enhance the network!!!
Any one else had this problem before?

My wife says i always sleep talk, ramberling on about something or another.
No nightmares of people cutting network cables with scissors like some sick twisted horror move yet though.
Just the other day i was trying to give directions and said "You have to take the router down to 96 and swing a left"

That's also when I knew I had a problem....but it could be worse!
CCNP or MCSE is next to come.
*This is the Cisco theme park where riding the T1 cables and splashing in ethernet ponds are joyful, that crazy token ring game is rigged!!!!
any one seen the anchorman where the guy says "i love lamp" ???
well i got "I love router" haha
I also dream about the cli, frequently.
In fact, it's a great barometer of my readiness in a topic. For example, last week I dreamt I was working on an MST solution, and in my dream it made sense.
Two nights ago I woke up ~ 4am after dreaming about CoS, and I smiled to myself, cause what I dreamt made no sense at all. Now I know what to study harder on.

or
"I slept with my router and my switch has left me"
or
"I-P way to much should i see a doctor?" - pun intended.
i could go on and on.....
access lists, qos, port security, oh yeah the best one "significant_other(config-if)#shutdown"
check this one out george...
significant_other(config)#access-list 101 permit host sig_other host me eq xxx always
new port xxx newly defined by the RFC...
Working on renewing CCNA!
significant_other(config)#access-list 101 deny host sig_other host me eq nagging
significant_other(config)#access-list 101 deny host sig_other host me eq rolling-eyes
There have been a lot of sleepstudies that prove that reading and or studying right beofre you go to sleep helps you to remember and retain. Something about how your brain behaves while you are asleep. I have never sleep talked about cisco, but I have dreamed about it. I have, as networker said, been studying at night, and the first thing that was in my mind when I opened my eyes was frame-relay or whatever it was I was doing. When you study as hard as we do and think about it as much as we do, it's no surprise that we subconsciously think about it.
1:1 In the beginning, Cisco created the Routers and the Switches
1:2 And the network was without hierarchical structure; and convergence;
and congestion was the face of the route. And the spirit of Cisco was moved
upon the TCO of every enterprise.
1:3 And Cisco said "Let their be PoE" and their was 48v
1:4 And Cisco saw the stock market rise and it was good; and divided the Poe
from the standard
1:5 And Cisco called the PoE; Power to your stupid executives who cannot find
a power plug in their office, and called the standard "EOS/EOL"
I think im doing good so far, my own cisco bible
Trying to tell a crazy guy that hes crazy is just crazy...
Ok so is anyone doing any work on a Friday...?
LOL at George... I would read that Bible to my kids (if i had any).
Kenon and r_durant. Wishful thinking... I'll submit feature request to Cisco tomorrow.
What could I be thinking with such heresy?

For Cisco so loved the world that they gave us EIGRP, that whoever uses this routing protocol shall not lose packets, but will reach the internet.

Maybe you should submit it to IEEE instead, we wouldn't want Cisco to lock us down to only their devices in this instance...I prefer non-proprietary in this case...
Working on renewing CCNA!
Is there a 1100 step program for this?
Haaahahahahahah you just made my day
Hello, my name is Clint, and I have been addicted to Cisco for 2years. My kids hate me, my wife left me. But i'm doing a lot better. I've been clean for 2 days..**applause** I'm trying to ween myself of techexams, but I'm finding it excruciating. I just can't quit.
