11/21/2006: "That Sound You Hear Is Me Drowning ..."
Sharp-eyed readers will notice that it's been a few days since my last entry. It's not due to a lack of topics to talk about, or desire to do so - it's just a matter of time.
I'm a software process developer at Boeing, and the project I've been on for the last year has entered the critical rollout phase. Starting the day after Thanksgiving, we'll have real users on the system for the first time as a pathfinder for the rest of the factory. Naturally, there are about a million little details that need resolution before that can happen. I'm working with our programmers to hammer out the last fixes to the code, while organizing our acceptance and load testing effort. In addition, as the guy who knows the software best, I'm responsible for training our pathfinder users, and I'm way behind on my training materials. I'm busier than the proverbial one-armed paper hanger.

Hopefully what I lack in quantity during the next few weeks I'll make up for in quality. At least, that's the plan ...
