Where have I been?

Work mostly. Wake up at 5 or 6 and start working. Go to work and work some more. Come home, work into midnight or 1. That’s been my week and I’m feeling kinda tired, but it’s over now. Yay! After all that work to get things ready for a demo they decided that the client and the server had too many problems to show after all. It’s a minor disappointment, but the work was not useless at all. Everything is in a much better state than when I started. I also respect that my boss decided not to go ahead with it which is going to make him catch hell from the people who wanted to do the demo.

I also got referer rules in place to stop the referer spam in my logs. It ended up not being that difficult and it’s seriously reduced that traffic. It was getting to the point where my connection was being bogged down with it and the load on the machine would exceed 25. I think I might hate referer spam more than regular spam now for the bandwidth reason.

I also made the icb client echo back to the user which /flirt and /confuse was sent to someone else. It was a simple change but one that will make like 5 people happy.

Tomorrow we go to LA, returning Tuesday, to visit my parents and sister. Yay for time away!
