Friday Five

1. Work/Programming I think in future I’ll be more resistant to having a design dropped on me where they expect me to make the product described in the design. I’m coming down to the wire on my current project and tying up the loose ends.. and it turns out that what they wrote and how I read it are two…

Friday Five

1. Work/Programming Current project is being a bugger. I’m hammering it out.. but every solution leads to two more problems.. ADD TO THAT a DB field that I thought was going to be a String ended up being a Double. PITA to fix that. I may end up logging in on Sunday to put some time into the project. March…

(belated) Friday Five

1. Work/Programming I missed my final milestone for this project and asked for an extension into this week. I -could- have hit the milestone on Friday but I don’t think the code would have been as well tested as I want it to be. That said.. this week is March Madness.. and the Madness is running high this this year.…

$50 Kicker Chili

Fearghus really likes chili so I’ve been experimenting with it to find one that he likes so we can keep them in the freezer. I think I’ve finally found one that’s mostly pantry-fare. You could doll this up with red bell pepper, garlick and fresh tomatoes.. if you had those on hand.. or you can make it out of the…

Friday Five

1. Work/Programming I’m almost caught up on my milestones for this project. If I can get DataBase connectivity into the project by EOD then I’ll be golden. Next Friday is the deadline. Cross your fingers for me. That said, I am a little bit behind on my test cases for the last two functions. I think I’ll make those a…

This morning I’m at 275.6. That’s 43 lbs gone since I started in August of 2010. Waist: 44.75 (down 3.75 inches) Hips:…
