selenayUh, so as is traditional I have fluffed a little on the Father's Day thing. My dad's birthday is always around that date and it tends to throw me a bit. This year I assumed Father's Day was the weekend after his birthday and I didn't check until I was writing the cards to put them in the post today and...
Father's Day is *this* Sunday. Uh. OK. It'll be a little bit late. Oops.
Not that I think Dad will notice because they're throwing a big family birthday for his 60th on Sunday and I'm pretty sure everyone has forgotten about Father's Day due to the party prep. Dad's birthday isn't until next week so both cards should get there by then.
This is the small problem with living an ocean away from most of my family: I keep forgetting that I need to figure these things out a week early because it takes a few days to get cards to them.
I also blame Project Doom. My brain is all over the place from that. It has now been established that having several people writing scripts inserting into the same tables is not working. So I'm now writing all the SQL scripts for setting up the web app while my co-worker is put back on making the Excel output work.
Let's pretend that I didn't raise this as a concern last Wednesday...
I was out yesterday due to a nasty migraine (oh, the excellent timing) and in my absense our test environment got corrupted and the business changed an entire glossary that I now have to update. Uh, I think that I'll refrain from being sick again until this nightmare is over.
Yesterday evening I did manage to get the first quarter of my AO3 auction fic edited. Go me! I added 600 words and those aren't even the sections that need whole new scenes added...
Woops.
Over the weekend, I also added a lot of words to Match Made in Heaven. Apparently my brain really wants play with crackfic wingfic AUs. Although now I'm itching to write the next bits of the steampunk AU so that may be my focus this week :-D
Apparently 2013 is the Year of the AU for me.
