serious work push
May. 24th, 2013 07:21 pmI have been gearing up to working longer and more enthusiastically as some major deadlines approach (which was severely interrupted by the Double Wars trip and recovery thereof), and that really showed this week. Yesterday I put in a 14 hour work day, but much of that was fun time spent hanging out with loved ones as they helped me with a ( project for work )
We were all having so much fun working on the project that we were still at work after midnight. She was sensible and hung up to go to sleep soon after midnight, but he and I kept going till nearly 02:00. I love it when work projects hold my attention so long!
Unsurprisingly, I woke up this morning thinking of databases, and wondering if I want to actually try to develop a database to hold all of my data,rather than the series of spreadsheets I am using now. I considered that back at the start of the project, but the list of all the different data types is so long and so complexly organized I gave up on the idea. Perhaps if I get that grant approved and the project goes on after November it will be worth the effort to do a conversion from spreadsheets to database.
Now it is time to head to the last choir performance of the semester: the farewell dinner for the exchange students, and we are the entertainment. This makes sense, since about half of our choir is exchange students this term. I hope we draw as many new exchange students next year, or our numbers will be sadly diminished. Luckily the slogan "learn Swedish, one song at a time" is a good one.
