working on Sunday
Working on a Sunday.
Well, I haven\'t actually done much work yet. But I did come in.
I think I\'d be better at my job if I were more organized. You know, set incremental goals, kept todo lists, that sort of thing. But actually doing those things just seems like another distraction. I know what I have to do now. The trouble, usually, is getting down to doing it. I\'m a horrible procrastinator, and I don\'t have much of an attention span.
The project\'s coming along, though. I\'ve told people I\'ll be done (more accurately \"feature-complete,\" meaning bugs are fine, it just all has to be there) in two weeks from now. The plan was to get done by the end of next week, because there\'s a bunch of process things that have to be done before I can hand anything off to anybody. Sure, it can work fine on my machine, but if I can\'t get it onto anybody else, we have a bit of a problem. That\'s pretty much what that\'s all about.
I\'ve got approximately two feature-ish bits that I have to get done this week. Both have some tricks to them I\'ll have to figure out, but neither are particularly hard. I might even get one done today. So I\'m still optimistic. I\'ll panic sometimes and worry about whether there are things I\'ve completely forgotten about. I\'m going to have to go through the QA test spec later this week and make sure I\'ve covered the basics, at least.
I\'ve been writing this in bits and pieces over the course of the last 4 or 5 hours. I actually have gotten a little bit done, which is good. I also played too much Lightening Pool (gah, it\'s frustrating), floated around my usual rotation of websites and generally goofed off too much, which I suppose is less good, but those things are to be expected. It is Sunday, after all.
