Ugh, the last couple of days I've been totally ground down by work, but the worst of it appears to be behind me now.
Mon, Tue, Wed -- I did about a half day of real work, a half day or more of just meetings, and then a bunch of side-issues dropped onto me that yeah, needed doing, but really wasn't what I wanted to do. Part of that was over half a day wasted trying to get the master stack to work, but there was other stuff too.
I fixed my fragmented protocol issue, yay! It should have tested clean on Tuesday but I don't know why it didn't. It tested clean yesterday when I poked it, which means it works.
Now I'm actually moving on to what I expected to be doing Tuesday -- validating protocol and conformance stuff.
Next week, the Shanghai guys reappear, so more soul-sucking is in store I'm afraid.
Last night, though tired, I went to Taiji and it was good. Need to do more, though; a bit out of shape. Tonight, dancing the Hustle! Fun! Aerobic!
This coming weekend I want to get the legs and fire onto the fire thingy and see how it behaves. I think I need a bigger blower. Also, metal class. Also, maybe, a visit with the tesla guy -- I may have to actually use the phone, ick. Also, game playing Sat night.
Tomorrow, a birthday party!
Oh, and I've committed to another major Make Magazine article, 'cause I'm insane and love doing that stuff. It's a project I wanted to build anyway, so it's all good. Except it is due March 1 or 4 or something. I said I'd do it for a due date March 4, giving me an extra weekend; I meant March 3, but whatever.
::sigh::
This day job sure slows me down. I need a sponsor! Win the lottery! Something!
