I'm up. I've been up....

...since 5. Thanks to an after-hours call that was a real mess. Symptoms fixed, issues raised, minor symptoms remaining to be fixed, problem gone to ground and unlocated.

Ducky. Just ducky. I'm going to be so exhausted tonight. But for now? Brushing my hair and heading in, because, well, there's no point in not.

Hopefully we'll sort this all out today. I feel so incompetent to handle things lately...I'd gotten used to the easy "everyday" problems we had been getting. :P

The day has gotten...better?

At work by the time I usually get out of bed. As in, physically in the office. Wheeee. Even with that, it was another two hours of work to clean up the site completely but, we think we whacked all the nasties inthe kneecaps and told them to take their buggy selves elsewhere. :P

At any rate, the client is up, stable, with one outstanding issue from last weekend's problem resolved while we were at it (not an ongoing problem; rather a slowly-ticking time bomb). We also identified an Issue with connectivity to the site and raised it with the proper people - it is now being worked on.

I took a nearly-complete design in its last (I hope) stage of drafts, turned it into a complete and correct (I hope) design, and attached (pessimistic, because the geo processing makes me nervous) actual estimates to it. So I've gotten something done, too.

After this I get to start writing Useful Code again, unless something else has come up. I think all my outstanding issues are done.

Well, except for an install CD I can't burn until I get a compile of another team's software, which I understand I will have Monday or Tuesday. It was requested yesterday, so that's fairly good turnaround.

And now I have a lunch break, and now I am going to go try to find some lunch to go with it.
