I didn't want June to slip by without a post, but when realizing I hadn't written in some time, I also realized I didn't really have much to say. The biggest thing is work. We had a huge project at work whose deadline came and went (We all waved at it as it went zooming by), and I've been dealing with the mop up (re: bugs) for the past six weeks. Starting towards the end of April, project management let us all know that we needed to get this project done ASAP as they were going to present it to our government client for free, as a way to "grease the wheels", as we were up for recompete.

It was without a doubt, one of the most poorly planed projects I've been on. I won't go into details, but to put things in perspective, we had not one, but two post-mortems about what could have gone better. There might have been a third, but management threw in the towel.

There's finally light at the end of the tunnel... I'm down to less than twenty bugs, so yay. They would be easy enough to clear out but I have normal sprint work as well. So, they sit in the backlog and I get to them when caught up on work.

But yeah... that's where most of my focus as been. 60+ hour weeks, some weekends, too many meetings, and blah.

I think it's time to take some days off.
