Today’s Weight: 290.0 Loading Day 1. Dosage 166.6 iu. (.30 CC of a 4cc mix of 2000iu) I’m totally stealing Stacey’s format. Yoink. I woke up with a headache. A head splitting “I’m going to die” migraine type headache coupled with scratchy, itchy eyes. I thought about not starting the injections but decided I was being a wuss. I got…
Friday Five.. and there was much rejoicing
1. Work/Programming YEAH! Yesterday, finally, my project went live. It went off mostly without a hitch. Again we were on the phone with the vendor.. and again being on the phone with them made me anxious and unhappy. We said: Ok, so all your stuff is on hold? They said: Oh, yeah, all set. We said: Ok, we’re launching our…
CrazyStupid Diet Day 0 take two
Last night while chatting with the fiance about the CrazyStupid Diet he expressed a lot of concern about injections (and when I say a “lot of concern” I’m really understating it). So slight change of plans. On Saturday a friend of ours who is a surgeon is going to come by and show me exactly how to do the injections…
CrazyStupid Diet Day 0
I’ve decided to do the CrazyStupid Diet, human chorionic gonadotrophin aka the hCG diet. I finally acquired all the necessary bits and finally last night I mixed my hCG. Tomorrow morning I’ll take my first injection. I would have done it this morning but I had to go to the hospital for a blood test (unrelated) and it seemed best…
Five Things
1. Work/Programming Slow launch is slow. We were supposed to go live with this at the beginning of March.. but we were having problems getting all of our testing done and this feature isn’t mission critical so we decided to wait until after March Madness.. we don’t launch anything during March Madness.. so we put this off until after March…
Thursday Things
1. Work/Programming Had a meeting today with our “special” vendor. I’ve come to the conclusion that they should never get on a call with us. Every time they do they make me anxious and unhappy. When we exchange email everything seems hunky dorey.. but then we get on a call and suddenly they make me feel like they’re a mom…
Wednesday Whatever (Like a friday five .. but less Friday-like)
I’m going to be busy busy busy on Friday so I figured I’ll do an early count down this week. 1. Work/Programming Things they are a-changing. I think I’m on the verge of getting a new boss. For the last year or so I’ve had one person listed as my on-paper boss and yet have been getting my marching orders…
Friday Five
1. Work/Programming HA! We had a meeting with the vendor (the one who said our code was making their code run slow) and I told them I was having trouble reproducing the issue. If I can’t reproduce the problem I can’t fix it. They hemmed and they hawed.. and then finally they admitted that they can’t reproduce the problem either.…
Friday Five
1. Work/Programming About a month ago in a meeting a vendor said that their code was running slowly because our code had some kind of issue and was loading their code slowly. Since wasn’t aware of their code running slow.. and I don’t make it a habit to yell at vendors in meetings I didn’t contradict them and instead said…
Friday Five
1. Work/Programming I’m starting to get into a groove on my current work project. Granted its the same evolving project that I’ve worked on for the last few years.. but it’s complex DOM manipulating javascript.. and I think I’m actually starting to understand what I’m doing (instead of doing it and poking the DOM to see if ti works). It’s…
