Slippage

I made a critical blunder at work last week. Wiped out a few tables in our prod database. Ooopssssss.. very disturbing because I have worked in prod systems alot and am usually quite careful about these things. Alas.. my coworker was cool, but took an hour or two to recover stuff. If I were on a different system I'd probably be fired. Yep, I am older now, 35yo, I must slow my typing down to match the speed of my dying brain.

I gotta figure out my work goals for the year which is an administrative headache.. but otherwise work is good, I like whats going on so far. Writing some moderately interesting pieces of software, learning some new things. What else can you ask for from work.

On the health front.. 2 days of boarding killed me. I need to run or something, my legs and back are not in shape. Must hit the gym.. 2 months of '08 are gone and I been slacking.

Dating front.. I broke it off last week w/ this one gal I was dating on the DL for maybe 2 months. Cute gal but not quite cute enough I guess -- more just lack of passion! I asked out this young gal I met (24?) so am going out Thursday w/ her. Hmmm... I wonder if I will have anything to talk to a 24yo about. She did live in SF before so we got that much in common anyways. I asked out this other gal I met like 3 months back and she tells me lets go out 3rd week of March. I'm like wtf kind of response is that -- kinda like the japanese version of I need to wash my hair? Oh well whatever. Theres a reason why I waited 3 months to ask her out, its because I wasn't that interested. I guess she figured that out. Hehe.

Thats the latest news from this side of this world.

I may go to Whistler in April. I figured I might as well do more than lie around my sisters place. Although a detour to whistler will cost me another $1000-1200. Hmmmmm....
