Oops

For the first time, yesterday, some code I wrote went live, and immediately broke our testing system. My officemate was actually in the middle of using the system, and started joking that I broke it. Then I heard a beeper go off, and, well long story short we rolled my code back off and now I have to figure out what went wrong. Actually, that is why I am writing here now. I have no idea what is wrong. I have an unhelpful error message that I can't trace, which might just be me not running the thing right and have nothing to do with what broke.

In other news, multiple girls at Starbucks know my name now. I bought myself a $50 gift card at the beginning of March, telling myself that would be my budget. Then the card ran out in two or three weeks and I just switched to my credit card again. My current goal is to not go there every day.

Salsa class is going ok. The teacher emphasizes a lot of showy moves that I'm not interested in, plus one or two that I've never seen before and suspect he made up. Despite that I'm learning some good stuff, though, so thats useful. I think dancing may be the best way to meet people. I could just go out drinking, but none of my friends live close enough to grab a drink on a weeknight. Actually one does, but all he ever does is text me at 2 am and ask if I want to go to the one cheesteak place in Seattle.

I even found some people on craigslist, I think, to play Settlers. Which reminds me, I need more chairs. After the $900 ikea incident, I decided to suspend furniture acquisition for a while, but then I needed a coffee table, so made one out of leftover moving boxes. I don't think they'll make good chairs, though, so I guess I'll have to buy some. Maybe I'll get a stool for playing the guitar or something.

It happens to be sunny today. I mean, I think this counts as sunny. Today is the first time I remembered to actually wear sunglasses when I neede them: the sunny days are so infrequent here that I never think to wear sunglasses and then I walk outside get blinded. Ok I really have nothing to say here; I just don't want to deal with this problem.
