The last few days of work have been annoying. The tool I work on has reached a point where we're going to release it and then not touch it, for fear of breaking the game right before it ships. So Paul, another engineer on my team, and I branched off the code onto another server so we can work on future versions of the tool. Along with this branch came a whole lot of changes in the underlying code of the tool, so as a result, everything broke in a big way. I only got it running again this afternoon, and even though it runs, the functionality is pretty much completely broken. I get very anxious when I feel like I'm not moving forward, so I've been getting frustrated a lot while working. Hopefully we'll get everything working again so I can actually start making progress again.

In other news, in my last entry, I included a link to Albert Kuo's website, as an experiment with Google. As of last Friday, when searching for "Albert Kuo" on Google, the page albertkuo.com was nowhere to be found in the search results. However, as of this morning, the very first search result is, lo and behold, albertkuo.com. Wacky.

I also have a sad story to tell. Last week, as I was walking out to my car in the morning, I noticed a little baby bird sitting in the middle of the sidewalk. Not wanting it to be squashed by bikers or big feet, I shooed it off the sidewalk to the relative safety of some nearby bushes. Feeling satisfied with myself and my good deed, I headed off to work. However, yesterday in the parking lot I noticed a little brown stain on the asphalt. Upon closer examination, what should I find but a very flat, very dead baby bird. I was sad.

Finally, I had a dream last night that Satan was coming out of my toilet.
