One of those...

There are days when things get to me, and others when I can make them slide off like so much water off a duck's back. This, unfortunately, was one of the former days. I blame lack of sleep, and general non-rootedness in my work right now. Also, the fact that the weekend wasn't terribly relaxing. And, missing dan. ...And job uncertainties, but that may be a rant for later.

Today's capstone was discovering at 5:30 that I deleted all the firewall rules on a dumb terminal server, which meant it wasn't accepting connections from anywhere at all, so I had to schlep over to the (cold) machine-room when I really wanted to go home. Fortunately, I only spent a few minutes there before deciding the easiest fix was to reboot the sucker, which only meant I had to redo my own changes from the last bit. Now it's fixed up and I can go home.

I guess overall, I feel dumb today. Things are taking longer for me to figure out than they should be. I'm doing things twice. I should've skipped the afternoon meeting my boss suggested I go to (which turned out to not be quite as relevant as I'd hoped).

I hope I have the oomph to come out to artsy fartsy night, as I could use some socializing and relaxing. Ve shall see.
