Topic: Rambling && Daily Info

Eeesh, my eyes hurt like hell. And my hands are throbbing from the massive amount of typing. But I think I have successfully remedied our problem, at least on the machines that I could get access to. Of course, this sets the bad precedent that it is going to be expected of me to perform in this same capacity again and again. To which I say, "Fat chance!" Atlas decided not to shrug, but this time he has shifted his load to the turtle of enormous girth.

I'm getting really tired of this shit at work where I am expected to run the entire system from the software side, when I am also told the broken piece of software is the one thing I am not allowed to fix. I am tired of these ridiculous constraints and then getting yelled at for following those constraints. I have no problem playing the game as long as they stop fucking with the rules.

It seems to be the pattern of my life that just as I figure out the rules and may actually have a chance of succeeding, the rules get changed and I get screwed.

I dunno, just feeling really wound up and burnt out. Like a car that is beyond overdue for an oil-change, or that oh-so-fun piece of steel that is just ready to catastrophically fail.

I'm just really tired now, hungry, and slightly irritated from the massively repetitive tasks I was engaged in.

So I think I'll get myself something to eat, brush my teeth, read a little bit of Heretics of Dune and go to bed.

But before I go, lemme ask a simple question: Am I completely off my rocker? I've spent a good part of yesterday and today trying to figure out how to implement arbitrary precision signed integers. Is that odd? I just find it strange that C# and .Net don't have them when Java and a bunch of other languages do (LISP). I dunno.

And now, its time for some sleep.

Later-o.
