    Health, Work, Neighbor, Banana Bread

    Wednesday, March 25th, 2020

    A great Wednesday. (25th) Exercised first thing. Watched an episode of Knights of Sidonia season 2.  Regular work day for me. Work went well, I was able to complete testing on the issue that I got solved, and move it into our staging environment, where I was able to start testing it there. I didn’t complete […]

    Work, Costco, Supplies, RedBox, Dinner

    Tuesday, March 24th, 2020

    A good Tuesday. (24th) Regular work day for me, I was able, with our engineers’ help, to get my issue I’ve been working on solved! It took me three full days, but I have a much better handle on our container software, CI (continuous integration) system, packaging system, image build system, and dev environment. All […]

    Work, Scripts, Schedule, Pokemon, Funny

    Friday, March 20th, 2020

    Busy Friday. (20th)  Regular work day for me. Learning the package creation, addition and deployment process for my product. Essentially, I discovered some scripts that should be in our guest containers that are missing in some of the newer ones. They exist in the package, but aren’t getting deployed correctly. Even though I worked late, […]

    Work, BBQ, Pandemic, TV

    Thursday, March 19th, 2020

    A good Thursday. (19th) Regular work day for me. Still learning tons of new things from our engineer that’s departing. Jill brought us BBQ potatoes fro our favorite BBQ place. They’re still open, fortunately. The governor (Abbot) has closed down eat-in places, for now, but takeout or drive through is still an option. I hope […]

    Health, Work, New Things

    Wednesday, March 18th, 2020

    A busy Wednesday. (18th) Got up and exercised first thing. “Went” to work. Of course, I’m working from home, so there’s that. Found out that one of our most talented engineers is leaving for another opportunity. That leaves some opportunity open for myself and another guy on my team, though. We spent the day learning […]

    Work, Tax, TV, Movie

    Saturday, March 14th, 2020

    A good Saturday. (14th)  Regular work day for me.  Got one host evac done, then Jill and I had to leave to go to the tax office to work with our tax lady. Got back into the office and worked late to finish out my day. Jill and I watched the rest of the episodes […]

    Work, Mandatory WFH, Emergency, Games

    Friday, March 13th, 2020

    Friday the 13th.  Regular work day for me, from the office, this time.  Of course, Rackspace announced that Monday, we’re starting pretty much mandatory work from home. San Antonio announced that Fiesta was postponed, and Trump called a national state of emergency.  Jill went to Whole Foods, she said it wasn’t too bad. Got home […]

    Work, WFH, CostCo, TV, Dinner

    Thursday, March 12th, 2020

    A good Thursday. (12th) Regular work day for me. My employer has requested that most of our teams attempt working from home today, to ensure business continuity. That’s not very difficult for my team, as we were primarily WFH (work from home) before the recent policy change that snubbed that.  Worked mostly on my primary […]

    Work, WHO, TV

    Wednesday, March 11th, 2020

    A good Wednesday. (11th) Regular work day for me. The side entrance to my work is closed, they’re working on the gates and re-paving the parking lot there. Got a couple of previously evacuated hosts maintenanced today, so that good.  I found an interesting link today. The WHO (World Health Org) has a COVID-19 situation […]

    Work, Pack, Bed

    Friday, March 6th, 2020

    A great Friday. (6th) Regular work day for me.  Worked on my primary product today. Handled a couple of minor emergencies thrown my way. Completed the container clean up work I’ve been performing.  Once I got home, Jill and our younger son helped me pack everything for our trip tomorrow. We’ve got our regional Robotics […]
