crazy at work

ok - i'm not really sure how much of the last couple of days i remember. it's all a bit of a blur.

yesterday: yogi picked me up (as usual), and we went through to his place to work. we worked most of the day. we ate lunch at his grandparents - good food - and then went through to university campus, where we sat around and waited (in the dark) for an hour and a half... bastards went two hours over on their presentation, and we needed to set up the machine >@

setting up the machine took a few minutes - or didn't, as we found a few bugs. so we went back to his place, and continued fixing things.

today: around 1am, mmf came over. and we finally started working on OUR project. in a few short hours, we practically completed the interface! and it's SO pretty, it makes my heart skip each time i see it. we stole the idea of handdrawn images from kingdom of loathing - and it's worked incredibly well in both projects.
so pretty.
the only problem we had was that the internet was down, and so we had no documentation for the controls we needed - we sat for almost an hour figuring out how to play with everything (the treeview control is AWESOME).

i eventually stopped working at 5.30, when i realized that i'd spent enough time in front of a monitor that my irises were developing scan lines.
i made double backups of everything, and then crashed on the universe's most comfortable couch.

yogi woke me up 3 hours later. his girlfriend organized me a strong cup of turkish coffee, and as soon as i finished it we were on our way to the presentation.

aside from 3 major (and very embarrassing) crashes (i *told* him not to mess around with the acceptance test!), the presentation went well. the lecturer was most impressed with my work, and i'm hoping it will have some effect on my overall result for the course :P

that over, we went back to yogi's. [added]i had an AMAZING shower (sorely needed). this is one of those showers that i don't want to forget. you don't get nice showers in this country.[added] mmf and i spent most of the day working on our project, which is now so completely beautiful that i'm considering marriage.
*shudder*

we had the most amazing thai food for lunch - it's got to be the most i've eaten in YEARS. i just couldn't stop! and it was so goooood...

yogi gave me a ride to work, and i've now been here for about an hour. probably time to actually do what i get paid for.
