Workaholics and 'crafting return
News ·Wednesday October 3, 2007 @ 20:41 EDT (link)
20070919: First workaholics and Warcraft of this product cycle: old bugs < 10k (that is, bugs with IDs under 10,000). Bought Costco ProForm 560 cross-trainer treadmill (Costco online).
20070921: Went out for sushi (me) and teriyaki (Honey, who doesn't like sushi).
20070925: Treadmill arrived; deliveryman helpfully put into garage (I was at work, Honey signed for it); we set it up when I got home, which consisted of lugging a very big box across the garage (moving Honey's car to get it past), in through the garage door, and across the den, pulling it out of the box, and flipping it a few times to put the supports on. Seems to be a good unit.
20070926: Second workaholics and Warcraft: old bugs < 25k.
20070927: Dentist (second appointment, more fillings).
20070928: Co-authoring dinner at Black Angus, won from draw (Joe Philips, financial advisor with Ameriprise). Rutabaga famers unite!
20071003: Third (and last!) workaholics and Warcraft: old bugs < 35k; we're now current to July 2007. I'm not sure if this will be the last workaholics Wednesday (definition: we stay at work until we meet a goal, usually into the night) of the product or not—there have been vague promises to that effect, and there isn't much love for them and there isn't much of a net benefit: many bugs come back the next day, or new bugs are introduced in the rush to get to the goal, and net time isn't gained since people (rightfully) come in late the next day (or two).
