mamajoanIt just occurred to me that if I learn the "Magnificat" for the tour in March, I'll know it already for when the other chorus is doing it in later March and April and May, so I can skip some of the rehearsals and stay home watching Buffy instead. I'm so shallow. But it so sucks that rehearsal night is on Buffy night! Wah!
On the work front, after investigating a procedure I needed to write, I learned from the developer involved that this procedure will require the customer to perform a unique SQL query on every user at their site. Some of our customers have user bases numbering in the thousands, or tens of thousands. And there is NO way these queries can be automated; each will have to be done individually. I explained this to my boss and he made some very interesting faces. Later he came by to tell me he had explained it to the SE's (sales engineers) who will be having to explain it to the customers. Oh, to be a fly on that wall. An innocent, don't-kill-the-messenger fly. A very uninvolved, 'don't look at me I'm just telling you what the developer said' fly. Yeah. Anyway, I'm working on writing up the procedure, and after that, I wash my hands of it. Somebody Else's Problem.
In cat news, I got my landlord to sign the statement saying I can have another cat. So now I'm free to go to the shelter any old time and pick one up. I just gotta figure out when is good. I'm thinkin' maybe I should wait till after the Montreal trip. :(
And now, back to thoughts of slash. Homoeroticism Yay! (here)
