it's not even the right name

Really, the wiki host should've been called library-of-babel, but that's an unwieldy hostname. aleph would've been better suited to the monitoring host, but that one has the boring sjl-monitor1 moniker, as it's a production machine.
I've had my issues with naming hosts before. Even though the sane choice is to go with the boring but practical scheme for the production systems, it still feels like i'm giving up a fundamentally fun part of my job.
I'm also occasionally toying with the idea of changing my journal's name (and have been for a couple of years). I keep coming up with cool names that unfortunately are not representative of, well, me.
