So, so smoky-many fires, funneled up and down the valley. It’s into the red for particulates-my throat is scratchy. It’s OK inside, but I had to wait, wait, wait for a bus, so I got to breathe the bad air.<\/p>\n

Not much else, dinner, bed, slept meh. S was up early. I’m thinking of going to the Nautilus workout order, where I alternate a bunch of workouts. We’ll see-same thing with cardio-intervals, long continuous, and elliptical\/stair climber. I did, and it was hard-elliptical and negative routine 1. I’m feeling it today, but I’m probably in as good shape as I’ve ever been. And cutting out dessert and a lot of sugar from my coffee should translate into weight loss. Maybe. Only time will tell that particular tale.<\/p>\n

I’m feeling like I need a nap now, though-rice cakes didn’t do the trick-need sugarrrrr…<\/p>\n

And here we are at Friday. Rushing in changes to production over the weekend. One was a lack of regression testing. We need automation-that was one of the nice things about ECRT-I had a really good QA guy who automated everything. Then they got rid of all of us. Second time that has happened to me-it’s still upsetting. I can understand Leon firing me way back with PIC because I was damaging business relationships and fucking things up, but at Quest and Huron, no. I was doing quality work. Whatever-money talks, I guess.<\/p>\n

Now Monday. I’ve been sleeping badly-I have a compressed nerve in my shoulder and I think it’s affecting my sleep-I wake up a bunch. The weekend: w\/o Friday-first full week of Nautilus routines, doing HIIT, continuous run, elliptical for cardio. Makes for variety. The compressed nerve affects w\/o some. Tidy Sat., school picnic later. Church, Sat. market, w\/o-getting that 2.5 miles in a half-hour…decent. Production deployment went easy. Hard to get up today. Prod looks good-1 small change and an unreproducible issue-I checked the monitor and it’s monitoring fine. Getting jumped into another support thing.<\/p>\n

Tuesday-yet another month of not enough $$$, and short on bills. Not good. I so want the big score, whatever it is, but it usually means more work than I’m willing to do right now, so I guess I have to suck it up. Weds., went to bad late-watched part of John Wick. W\/o-elliptical and negatives. M was sore, but I wasn’t. S’s birthday today-she was up, so I hugged her. They decorated the classroom at math camp for her. She slept on our floor the past 2 nights. She got up when I did last night and I told her she could sleep on the mattress, but she didn’t, and she scared the crap out of me when I was in the kitchen.<\/p>\n
