Previous website is now in maintenance mode - and now copying the database over to the new web farm for import (so far so good)
Getting psyched for a big website launch tonight - lots of data to migrate to the new servers :)

Ah, damn you copy changes! Damn you all to hell!
Sharing a level with a data recovery company is odd - always feel sorry for the reception full of worried, anxious people

I find hearing the iPhone alarm sound used as a ringtone in the :30 Seconds tv show like fingernails down a blackboard - i hate my alarm

Installing .NET Framework 4 on the production web farm server by server - got to love load-balancing & zero downtime
Struggling with motivation tonight - not happy

Think I may be the only one who loves the rain - rugged up, music cranking & working away happily!
We’re all right where we’re supposed to be (time means nothing)
..and now i understand why uploadify doesn’t support it *sigh*
Opening Flash for the first time in years to edit the Uploadify fla - desperately missing the ability to trigger upload from javascript
