I don't give a good gorram about relevant, Wash. Or objective. And I ain't so afraid of losing something that I ain't gonna try to have it. You and I would make one beautiful baby. And I want to meet that child one day. Period.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

ETA: Maybe this came from here. It's from a tumblr page I don't remember bookmarking (or even looking at).

For the obsessive among you, here are two good links: [link] [link]

They've gotten portable power units to Fukushima Daiichi, but apparently it was without power for a couple of hours, so they've got some heat and steam build up, but cooling water and controlled venting should take that down.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Thanks for the info, Ginger.

Thank you, Ginger. I actually was waiting for you.

I was, too. So thank you.

Liese, honey, go take a nap.

Liese, do what the good people say.

Work got...worse. Doing acceptance testing and something is horribly wrong and no one can explain it. I had to leave (and frankly was theeees close to stabbing the computer and no really being able to focus anymore,) but I brought the laptop home hoping to run some more test. But some of the processes are not up (despite being last told they were up) and that means I can't run the tests. And we were planning on installing on Monday. Hafuckingha.

Dev keeps insisting "but it didn't happen in test!" Well, boofuckinghoo, looky here, it's happening! In the test environment!

So I'm stymied. And really really sick of friday drama.

AND AND...I feel bad that I can't do more. And yet, acceptance testing usually lasts a week. We got the system Thursday afternoon, and my part couldn't even start until today. So really? Not my fault!
