Whoa, Really?

Posted on May 21, 2010

So I realized this morning that I take a train and walk over a freaking river every day on my way to work.  What would I do back home?  Drive.  On the freeway.  How boring.  The only time I knew we had low cloud-cover back home was when I heard it on the radio.  Now?  I simply look up at the skyscrapers.  If I can't see the top of the Trump Tower, Sears Tower, etc., we've got low cloud cover. 

I need to (re)discover Chicago this summer.

Documenting Dreams

Posted on May 20, 2010

A night or two ago, my dreams consisted of:

My mom telling me, in my new apartment that she hasn't seen, that I shaved my beard unevenly.  So much so that it was four inches longer on one side than the other.  This was not the case in the dream, nor is it in real life.

My bracelet breaking again.

The State Street Chicago River draw bridge rising up as I was walking towards it.  Not even as I was walking on it, just towards it.  So I had to wait, and then I woke up.

Weird dreams.

Got the script working and implemented into the whole thing.  Fixed a few other issues that popped up.  Day goes by fast when I actually have things to do.

Writing documentation isn't as bad as I thought it'd be.

Charm - Command line program allowing managing of WordPress, Livejournal, Blogger, and quite a few other journal thingers.  Runs on Python. 

I honestly still have no drive to update this thing despite having an accessible client (the web interface is accessible, but.. :/).

Right now I'm trying to figure out just what the hell is going on with Groovy and SoapUI properties.  Groovy seems to insist on storing properites as strings.  This is fine, until I need to do some math on -- holy shit.  I can probably just store it as a global context variable, but I might get the same issues.

Nope.  Same shit.  Properties are strings, and none of the java functions (parseInt, getInteger, valueOf) seem to be able to pull the value of it!  GRR!

This should work.  It doesn't.  This is annoying.  I don't like trying to fix the same damn bug all day, but I've got nothing else assigned to me... soo...

Fellow tester just said 'sephamore' instead of 'semaphore' .....

Semester's over, got an apartment with Sarah and our cats (Pinto and Duster). 

Working at Law Bulletin again.  Same place I was at two years ago.  Let's just hope that nothing else from two years ago comes back...
