Last few days have been a pleasant blur.

Let's start with Friday. Work is going nicely. I haven't reached my target hours-per-week pace but I did better than last week, and I am actually working, making Perl modules that build off of software in the company's Subversion repository. I dropped an email to the person at the company whose name is attached to these older modules, but haven't heard back yet. I guess the next step is dropping by his office and saying hi, since he's right there.

Aside: I do believe that I have grown more as a programmer, manager, designer, and overall thinker in the last 12 months than I have at any other point in my postgraduate life. Things reveal themselves a lot easier now than they once did.

After work, went to a folk concert with [livejournal.com profile] radiotelescope and [livejournal.com profile] cthulhia. Venue was a UU church in Watertown, and the musicians were Cindy Kallet and Grey Larsen. The music was was great, and I recognized several of the pieces (especially Larsen's Irish flute solos) from Zarf's half of the office MP3 rotation, but I thought the whole show ran a little long; was very twitchy by the end.

Saturday was crazy, and very foodful. Brunched at Johnny D's with [livejournal.com profile] mrmorse to strategize about The Gameshelf, and then sunk many hours into hairy design work for some web applications that volity.net needs. In the middle of this [livejournal.com profile] classicaljunkie and I mutually lured each other out for Rossini's coffee and baked goodies. And then dinner with [livejournal.com profile] doctor_atomic and crew while she's in town, followed by chatting late into the night about RPGs that I find interesting even though I'll probably never actually play them.

Today my major accomplishment so far has been beating the third Ratchet & Clank game. Longest credits I ever did see. Time to get back into things now.

In the course of last night's jibber-jabber, we watched Love Letters. Hilarious, well-produced and minimalist short subject. NSFW.

I feel a little ripped off that my seventh-bit birthday will be just four days shy of the end of the Unix epoch.

I'll still take it, mind you.
