TurtleFusion

Well as promised - to myself - today was a productive day as code goes.  Apart from a little dabble in my Flex/Coldfusion problem this morning over coffee, I faithfully worked on my work laptop on one of the reports I have on my list as needing to get done. I did actually want to make good progress on this particular report as, when I meet with my fellow coder at work tomorrow, it will help him out as my approach to this particular project is not going to affect some work he's just done as far as the database is concerned.  I'm sure that he'll still have some concerns and want it done differently - I can never please this guy really - and to be honest I don't try - but I always enjoy trying to guess his reaction to my coding approach.  I have my parts of the project - he has his - I think - and I have to work as I see will work best for the whole application.  Considering I've spent pretty much all my free time today doing this I hope he appreciates it.  Or maybe I hope he doesn't, depending if I'm in the mood for a fight.  Do you ever feel like that?  In a stressed out mood and just looking for an excuse to go off? I know I should be a better human being, but then again I should be twenty pounds lighter and be programming 3-D games for Sony as well but lifes life if you know what I mean.

Anyway I did enjoy my coding and as always found the O'Reilly Safari Books Online a great help in my moments of stupidy (I like to call them frustration but I know you guys know better).  It's worth the money I pay - so far.  I also suscribed to a good magazine over here in the UK called .NET which is a pretty cool magazine for developing and designing websites - in fact there logo is develop/discover/design and has some good reading for someone with interests such as mine.

Apart from that I've not done too bad - a bit of bad tv - although mostly with a laptop on my lap while it happened in the background - and a bit too much food.  Tommorrow is work, time to go running and time to get back on the project after my lovely week of training.
