forging ahead

[sergebroom]

My two big projects, deployed on Friday night, went thru their validation process this morning. One of them had issues that were caused not by the project itself but by someone else's screwup, and they're minor. The other had not one single problem. I very much appreciated that, during today's staff meeting, my manager didn't say one word about either project in spite of the many hours I spent to make this happen, but she did make sure to ask me if I had now begun working on my next urgent project.

I knew you were guilty of forgery.

Of that, and of many other things, one of which is that I communicate to my faraway teammates what I'm up to, aside from my plans for world domination.

You need to keep those quiet, I think.

I'd better otherwise, before I know it, the Girl from U.N.C.L.E. will be stopping my cunning plans with a bop on the head.

Wouldn't that be the Girl from A.U.N.T.?

In my wife's case, it'd be the Girl from K.A.O.S.

Ah, the reward for a job well done is more work. Gotta love it.

I see that the sparks will fly, though.

And the appreciation, public and private, is such that, were it made solid, it would crush me into a crêpe, dark pink, with gristly bits throughout the dough.

Ooh, sounds creepy (which, according to Wikipedia, is the proper pronunciation of crêpe). And we all know how exact Wikipedia is, so we'd better pronounce it that way.

The Creepy Crêpe of Christmas is a hearthwarming story oven requested by many children, including Hansel and Gretel.

Well, if you keep on getting that heartburn, why not just stop eating crêpes to begin with?

Oh, hearthwarming! Never mind.

[serge-lj.livejournal.com]

Better than a heartworming tale - or tail.

Argh.

[serge-lj.livejournal.com]

To say the least.

Congrats!

Can I trade you cables to nowhere (or the wrong where), and filesystem resizing with a side order of "are you sure you can get there from here?".

I must admit - this is all much more entertaining now that there's an end in site :)

[serge-lj.livejournal.com]

True. There is a light at the end of the tunnel.
