Stress

[cjsmith]

Overwhelmed. Overwhelmed. Overwhelmed. Deer in headlights. Mind running in frantic little circles. Failing to do even the simplest useful thing.

I hate this.

Deep breath. Time to list what I've done right today:
- Remembered to bring a bunch of crap in to work (stuff that's been waiting to come in for days).
- Made sure to talk to architect about New Feature that landed on my plate last night.
- Went to bookstore and to library at lunch to look for reference book to help with New Feature. (Didn't find a copy at either place, though.)
- Even got LUNCH at lunch.
- Wrote list of things-we've-tested for meeting. Wasn't needed, but I wrote it & was ready.
- Found some old demo code that will help build New Feature.
- Figured out a workaround that fixes a key test application we need. (For days it has been crashing immediately upon start.)
- Failed to take ANYBODY'S head off. Didn't even bring an axe to work.

That may be about it.

Yes, I am interested in all of the car stuff. We'll have to figure out when will be good to pick them up. There's no rush on my end if there isn't on yours. Maybe if there's time we could have a nice cup of tea when I pick them up or you drop them off?

OK, cool. Whenever. Yes, that would be lovely! :-)
