Had a really tough time getting out of bed this morning. Almost definitely due to a particular little boy waking up and hammering on the bedroom door at 3 and 5:30 a.m., but he want back to bed without too much trouble. Still, it was that whole "awake and vertical" thing going on, and that has the unfortunate tendency to really mess with sleep patterns.
Traffic was surprisingly light this morning. It's always more fun to be here when the building is nearly empty. Traded mail with revseandoe and our mutual old boss Bob about the New York Rangers acquisition of Pavel Bure- a nice guarantee that the Blueshirts will miss the NHL playoffs yet again, because the last thing they need is another multi-million dollar player with star potential who won't contribute in his own defensive end.
Thought while I was sending mail to Bob, I might see what sort of non-entry level positions he has or can engineer. A senior technical writer slot, even a staff trainer gig wouldn't be outside my comfort zone, especially if Bob wants me to come back enough to actually pay me what I'm worth.

Well, it's official. I don't even rate getting talked to for the Xbox position. Figures.
That's probably a sign that it's time to broaden the horizon a bit more seriously and look for things outside of MS a bit more seriously. Since i really want to get back into games, it's probably a sign to poke around Gamasutra and see what openings there are in the industry at-large.
New attitude approach: “There are no setbacks, just road signs pointing in another direction.”

It's been an odd day in Office test land. Nobody's reporting any major build breaks, but suddenly there are crash bugs in our Hindi builds. I've written three crash bugs right from the setup sanity tests, where we haven't had any crashes before. Ugly.
I think i deserve +.5 points on my review for hating my job and still kicking ass while doing it. Who needs to be able to read the damn language?
