Or yanno, His Flying Spaghetti-ness. Whatever works.

Results of my overnight scripts (2):

32 call fails
Numerous other errors which then caused a general “jesus christ, its spewing 80 kazillion lines of crap! Quick! Send out another error!!”
Which then caused fourteen crashes

And I get to write them ALL up to track ’em. Sometimes, my job is less test engineering and more data entry. Ah, well. I know what *I’ll* be doing for the rest of the morning.

Of course, I am totally stoked that I broke the new code so horrifically. It makes my lil SQA heart happy.

“Look at the fog, Mom!”
“I know! Isn’t it pretty?”
“Looks cold.”
“It was foggy yesterday, too. You know that little valley behind Mom’s office?”
“Yeah?”
“Well, the fog was all the way up to the windows off the back porch. You couldn’t even see that little valley.”
(pauses)
“That was just the fog trying to get in where it was warm.”

Here’s hoping today is not the clusterfuck that yesterday was. 🙂

Got *nothing* done yesterday. Instead, we had a rain day. We read. We watched TV. We colored. We had lunch and wandered around in a grocery store. Went home. Petted the kitties. And yes, it was very nice.

Tonight however, we need to buckle down and get things accomplished. The house needs some McCleaning. Laundry. Cooking. Cannibalizing my old computer. Setting up the new one. Setting up Girlie’s (made from my old Frankenputer).

Busy, busy.

Back to work for me.
