Checking in
Last week was extremely productive on many fronts. The hobbyist in me is all smiles:
- Finished acceptance test suite for my study.
- Fixed a major concurrency bug involving modal dialogs in one of my Java projects.
- Wrote a little PHP script that feeds a Flash/AS2 gallery with pictures from my Flickr account.
- Put in an order for The Pragmatic Programmer and Software Craftsmanship.
- Climbed a bunch of 5.9 walls at the gym. 5.8s are now my cooldown climbs.
- Climbed about 80% through a V1 bouldering route—it’s hard to get over the lip after ten or so 30-50′ climbs.
- Learned how to jack up and chock a car, remove the front bumper, air box and resonator, swap in a cold air intake and put it all back together again. Once the parts come in, I’ll get to apply this theoretical stuff. In the meantime, I’ve learned how to take public transit to get all the way to school—you know, just in case.
- Found a 25% off deal on a 200W bass amp head and 4×10″ cabinet. My 30W combo unit just isn’t doing it for me anymore—actually, it never did.
- Started packing my stuff for the move in February.
- Booked cottage for autumn getaway.
- Caught up on sleep.
