Nothin' Much
Jan. 18th, 2017 10:57 pmWell, I'm over the flu and over the post-flu laryngitis (I used up my voice at the Inclusivity Board meeting last week, and was unable to make a sound for like two days afterwards), and now I'm dealing with Ye Olde Lingering Cough.
Nothing much interesting since last I posted; just recovery. Well, and the minivan needed transmission work. Whee! It's at that point where when a big repair comes up, we ask whether we should pay for that or just go get a new vehicle. Decided that it's not quite time to do that yet, since we have the wedding coming up and would rather have the money on hand for that, but probably next year it'll be time to go car shopping. (Yuck. I hate the whole large-expense decision-making process.)
So after commuting with Jerry on Friday & Tuesday, since I had no meetings today and everybody else in my group was out of the office, I worked from home. I got a minor bug in my code sorted out this morning (the right code in the slightly wrong place) and got a bunch of test locations bias-corrected for this last-minute comparison project that has come up. I was figuring it would take all of this week to deal with, so now I'm ahead of things, hooray! The weather was nice today, so after getting that done I walked to Chipotle for a late lunch and picked up some stuff at the grocery store.
I've been spending a lot of time lately playing an old-style isometric CRPG called Bastard Bonds and enjoying it quite a bit. I definitely recommend it to anybody who enjoys those kinds of games, although note that it features a lot of pixelated gay fanservice, so if that's not a selling point, you should at least not mind it.
