I had to put on some happy smiley music today to get motivated this afternoon.

A lot of challenging work to do today, need all the cylinders firing.

Music totally changes my mood some days

[Tom]

I'd be making some decent progress today if the app I'm working on was actually set up properly... But the lead is working on setting it up at the same time I'm working on some sections of it.. and It doesn't run because it isn't setup properly \o/ so I can't test a damn thing.

I can't work very well like that. I test every other change. blargleflargle.

[Mr. Analog]

We're trying to collaborate on a change, which is good, my part is relatively easy but it's not exactly what I had planned to do this afternoon. At the end of the sprint some other task will fall off the end.

Also I love Powershell scripts...

[Mr. Analog]

Yikes, I didn't realize it was that crazy, mind you I've had my back to the outdoors all day lol

I'm kind of glad now I had an early meeting today and decided to stay home.

[Thorin]

Stop, collaborate, and listen,
This is a change we're all, like, missin',
We're writin' the Powershell script so well,
They're gonna drag us straight through hell.

Hell, hell, DLL hell,
The place that we all know so well,
Dev screams in pain from state to state,
Province to province till you can't escape.

WB yellowhead at St. Albert trail closed due to flooding now

[Thorin]

Jebus, just what we need.  I wonder if the stuff around 98 Ave is the river escaping its banks or just from a large amount of rain.

[Mr. Analog]

Good grief... that's nuts.

[Thorin]

Went to look up 98 Ave and 92 Street on Google Maps, panned over and saw this: http://goo.gl/maps/rq2Sw.  I thought there was only one River Queen?  That's some wacky aerial photography!

Looks like the storm drains aren't draining fast enough.
