Going to be a weird week for me. Most of the weekend was spent in some
degree of sinus pain/pressure. Worked last night on some Carcosa Corp stuff,
which wasn't bad, just took a while. Today came into work a tad late,
but no random stuff being broke due to last night's work. I have bad luck
with making late night changes that look fine, but in the cold light of
day (and customer activity) you find the errors and mis-estimates. Not
today, other than adjusting firewall rules to take the additional databases
into account.
The weird starts with DR testing at work this week. I'm the guinea pig,
as the new guy, I've been kind of deliberately kept in the dark, so when
they hand me the documentation, we can see if there are flaws in it, that
someone who's familiar with the process would just be able to fill in.
We'll see how well this works. I'm kind of anxious because, hey, new
situation. But it should be ok, or at least be educational.
I also have a friend going in for a what's supposed to be a minor surgical
procedure. All should be ok, and it should be a day procedure. But of
course, I'm twitchy. Don't like my friends in hospitals. *sigh*
Add in Friday's expected political insanity, I expect the internets to be
utterly awash in hatred and anger. So I'll probably avoid much discussion,
set filters to maximum, and maybe spend the weekend trying to translate
the Voynich Manuscript. Or go to art museums and bookstores. Or binge
on cheesy 80s horror movies. Or get on social media, and find 2000 more
groups from all over the spectrum to block...
So this week will be a tad challenging. But there are perks. And books,
and people who care. Oh yeah, and Cthulhu. Always good to have an eldritch
monstrocity that drives you insane in your corner. So on that tentacled note,
I'll ramble more later. I'm going to try to post more here, get back in
my blogging habit, vs miniposts on Facebook.
