moving++, location != anywhere
August 4th, 2005 by HenNowadays I’m moving forward but not getting anywhere.
Good news(?) health-wise, the aches, pains and irritations which were enough to affect my day to day actions and yet not enough to make me goto the doctor (yeah, I’m an idiot), were for the last week so painful that I finally went to the doctor. Seems I have another sinus infection, chances are the one I had a long time back never went away. So good news in that I know why the last week has been a week of utter misery, and bad news in that as with all medical issues there can be nasty repercussions, least it seems that way if you’re discovering all the wonderful vaccinations they want to jab your poor children with. So that’s a forward, though nothing actually different yet. Antibiotics, lemsip, advil, lots of H20 and vics vapour rub.
Another forward is the release of osjava oscube 0.2. A few minor fixes etc that really just shows that I need to code for myself again, I have no urge in the evenings to get anything done coding wise, even now my left ear feels like the room is depressurizing.
Admin stuff is easier, probably because each part has a defined start and close. I upgraded JIRA and Confluence a few times over the last months and have been doing lots of CVS to SVN migrations for Apache. Laid some network cable in the house, built a bed, put up a ceiling fan, setting up an OpenBSD firewall, replaced a towel rail, all really admin stuff and quite fun to do.
The Apache work is yet again moving forward without going anywhere. I’m definitely an inactive committer at Commons right now, I’ve a long list of want-todo’s that I’m unable to find the energy to move on and I’ve a set of chair emails that I need to write and send sometime soon.
All of this is better than it was a few months ago when I was getting nothing done at all. However, as is pretty usual for me, none of it feels right yet.
