OMG Mpittened at work!?!!

No, I'm not literally mpittened at work unless, that is, I bring along nyankopitten and promote it to mpitten to mpitten myself with, but I certainly feel like that today in particular.

The week since I came back has been alternately frustrating, tiring and exciting. It's frustrating because I keep running into limitations (some of which are meaningless and others which are crippling) of the tools that I use to develop these work items; tiring because I pretty much have to write everything from scratch since there isn't anything that previously exists which is also largely because things were in constant flux until very recently and also because there are hard/immovable deadlines for the work (which a lot of other things are also riding on); and exciting because for each piece of the overall project that I do finish (I've done about 5 or 6 pieces so far, and a colleague on my team's done about 4 or 5 other important pieces) I can put them together and watch things take shape (although they still have to be tested and debugged, which invariably results in more frustration, hair falling out and other things including a tendency to be snappish sometimes...).

At the same time, I started my driving lessons again today with the same instructor that I'd taken lessons with previously. It was pretty fun and I remembered most of the things from the last time, although there was a minor scare when the car went over the curb after I made a right turn and accelerated a little too fast, which I also blame on the car having a very twitchy accelerator pedal. But at least nothing bad happened and hopefully nothing will on Friday, when my next lesson is. ^^;;

And since wao has been complaining a lot about cat pictures, here's one to make her be quiet satisfied.



I haven't forgotten about my trip holiday report, BTW. XD

Edit: I left work at 11:00 pm, and I'm cycling home now, to come back tomorrow and continue working.

I think pretty much everyone is, especially with certain deadlines that are coming up quite soon. ^^;;;
