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!

Yesterday I was on Pacific Avenue waiting for Nicole outside of the cosmetics shopand thumbing through a book. After a few minutes of that I notice a bee is trying to land on me. I quickly move about 10 feet away, which usually gets bees to go about their business. This bee found me again and started another landing attempt. I moved another 30 feet away and still the bee followed me. I moved again and this time it stayed away.

Today I was waiting for Nicole out side of Red Poppy and reading a book on number theory when I look down and see two bees attempting to land on me. I dodged a few times before giving up and going inside. The smells inside the store confused it and it stopped at the doorway.

Was my soap secretly replaced with pollen?

 

We have plants and stuff now. Not all of them, but it’s coming together. We opted for smaller plants that can grow into their places. Sorry I haven’t updated in awhile. I’ve been getting to work while it’s still too dark to go taking pictures, and coming home late to similar lighting conditions.
