selenayStar Trek tickets have gone on sale at my local cinema! WOO HOO! :-D
Tonight's to do list:
1) Book Iron Man 3 ticket for Friday opening weekend
2) Book Star Trek ticket for Friday opening weekend
3) PROFIT
I'll also need to check with my movie buddy on when she wants to see these things. I know she won't be able to get there on opening night, but as I'll want a repeat visit to both of these we'll hopefully be able to book a joint outing a week or two after opening night for both.
I wonder whether I should just take a sleeping bag and spend May living in the cinema, as that's what my schedule currently looks like?
Today's fun times happiness involves a business analyst who is being remarkably stubborn in not understanding a) the difference between Excel and PDF and b) why I can't make the Excel version of something look exactly like the PDF. Specifically, why are the pie charts slightly different?
*headdesk*
Dude, if you are completely in love with Oracle's 3D pie charts in the pretty PDFs then why in hell are you wanting me to build Excel outputs for these damn reports?
My project co-leader is on vacation and I'm getting regular pestering about whether or not we're going to hit our deadlines. Plus this Excel/PDF crap. Plus a lack of understanding on why I can't just skip systest and pass code on for a quick acceptance validation. Plus a bunch of other crap. And those deadlines are starting to look awfully close. I mean, I'm still confident that everything will be built in time but the panicking and flailing from the BA isn't helping my stress levels.
Gee, I wonder why I'm turning into a massive insomniac this week?
