David is an occasional blogger, software engineer, Nintendo fanboy, liberal, news magazine addict, voracious TiVo user, and bibliophile. He was born in St. Louis, grew up in southern Indiana, and returned to St. Louis to attend Washington University. He hasn't managed to escape yet. He's a fan of free wine tastings, too many tv shows to name, and eating out. David makes his living developing web applications used internally by his employer. He doesn't blog about work because he's heard too many stories about that causing workplace troubles. There's more on the about page. |

A slow day. I had a seemingly endless array of meetings to attend at work, which left me with a lot of work to get done in not a lot of time. Needless to say, I still have a lot to do. If I'm lucky I'll catch up tomorrow. I only have one meeting, so that should help. But I have two major projects going on right now and both are demanding more time than I have to give. So I do a little work on one, a little work on the other, and just accept the fact that I'll always be behind on both. Fortunately, I'm intimately familiar with one of them, as it's a repeat of the year-long project that I finished last May. To quote Yogi Berra, its "like deja vu all over again." It's not exactly the best return on investment to have us spend a year designing and testing an architecture that we need to retest less than a year later. Then again, to paraphrase one of co-workers, I don't have an MBA, so what do I know about business? (A: Truthfully, very little.)
