drained and definitely disappearing

after working till past midnight, i walked to the lizard. arbed around, the mermaid's protector was rather friendly, and had a drink with the mongoose. and then walked home (badly needing to pee. painfully so.)

i couldn't not read (for all his flaws, orson scott card can tell the story of ender's game excellently), and finally got to sleep around 3.30. i awoke at 6.50, and scrambled... making the bus with plenty of time.

unusual, and satisfying.

t'was a long day, but i didn't really do anything productive. i guess i'm back to smoking :/, and the dog and i spent the day hatching evil plans and catching up. and there was much tomfoolery in the section.

and we may or may not be getting sick. that's just great.

came straight home, launched into aforementioned emergency work, and finally finished it around 10pm. when i say finished, i've packaged it and sort-of tested it, and explained to the boss how to use it. vaguely.

i really hope it doesn't crash and burn. that would be most unfortunate. at the very least, however, it's no worse than what the previous programmer left behind.

i'm about to crash, guarding tomorrow and we're running exercises on tuesday, which conflicts with being on alert. that sucks.
whatever.
