Skudd's Grumps

When you write code that does things with external systems, make sure that you handle errors gracefully, or at the very least, log the parameters used to call the external system when there is an error.

I just noticed that my fly was open. Ugh.

My kidneys are working quite effectively, but I'm unable to do anything about it for a while.

The Skudd of the past was apparently clueless when it came to server authentication. Now I have all these legacy servers with no idea what their root passwords are and no SSH keys in place to be able to authenticate against them.

Instead of building a self-service tool for a legacy product report during one of the last 30 times I've been asked for this particular data, I've been running raw SQL queries against the database(s).

So tired, even though I had a mostly uninterrupted sleep last night.

Opinions on social media.

Headache. Lack of motivation.

The streets have turned into rivers.

ORA-12170: TNS:Connect timeout occurred

Headache, back left, about an inch behind my ear right in line with my eyes.

Every day around 3:15, the janitor rolls the cart of cardboard by my office. It wouldn't bother me normally, but it happens when I'm on a call EVERY DAY and the cart is VERY LOUD.

People who don't type as fast as I do.

So tired this morning that I forgot to bring any food.

Home/End/Pg Up/Pg Dwn are all wrong in the Mac world.

Containment field critical.

My lower back really hurts today. It's not the usual dull aches, but instead a sharp pain that starts at the spine and radiates outward.

And now my day is only half-booked.

My day has been booked solid with meetings in just a manner of minutes.

I apparently was over-hydrated last night. I was up every hour to use the restroom. No wonder I'm so tired today. Also, I think I was talking in my sleep last night.

I <3 4:00PM meetings.

I am so incredibly tired and I don't know why. Time for more coffee, I guess.

Multiple calendars with conflicting information.

Ugh, my lower retainer has popped loose again.

Someone stole my pen. >:(

Well that was a waste of my time. I could have had coffee by now.

When I email a group for some help with something specific, I expect them to respond to the email, not call me, not send me a Jabber message. RESPOND TO THE EMAIL.

Too not awake.

I hurt all over. I feel like I got run over by a bus. Also, Jr is teething.

Even though I tell Facebook often that I want to see the most recent things in my feed, it feels like it should ignore that option selection occasionally. Don't worry, GrumpLog won't do that.
