tomorrow’s the big day!

10:00 am – okay, tomorrow’s the triweekly dog & pony show.  gotta get all my ducks in row for that.  it’s cool, i’ve got all day.

6:00 pm – okay, things aren’t quite coming together like i’d hoped.  i’ve still got animation sounds that aren’t coming together, and matt still has a lot of effects sounds to do.  so, let’s grab a bite and get back to it.

10:00 pm – still not there yet.  dammit.  looks like the nightly game session ain’t gonna happen.  well, if we can get out of here by midnight, that’s cool.  i think we can get out of here by midnight.

12:01 am – we didn’t get out of here by midnight.  man, this is taking longer than i thought (really?  ya think?).  this new animation audio tool i got here is slick, but still a bit of a diamond in the rough and i’m still working through the kinks.  and matt’s having a hard time getting things to work in-game cuz…well, we don’t know why and there’s certainly no one here to ask…

2:00 am – alright alright alright already.  what we’ve got is good enough to show for tomorrow.  it doesn’t have to be perfect, right?  this is just a progress check kind of thing, right?  so if our progress snapshot has a few imperfections, that’s just reality, right?  right.  fuggit.  into perforce with the lot!

2:05 am – whaddoyoo mean perforce is shitting all over us?

2:10 am – whaddoyoo mean perforce is forcing us to stomp fresh valid data with the stale invalid stuff?

2:15 am – WHADDOYOO MEAN MY PROJECT IS CORRUPT?

3:00 am – i can’t figure this out.  shit.  oh hell with it.  we’ll call in reinforcements in the morning.  hey i know!  let’s unwind with some old school internet funnies!

3:30 am – my face and tear ducts are sore from the juvenile punchdrunk giggle fest.  matt split.  i rrrrrrrreally should call it a night.  oh hell, let’s try to resolve this perforce mess one last time.

3:31 am – I’M IN!  MY PROJECT IS LAUNCHING!  THE FILES ARE FILING!  THE MERGE IS MERGING!  WOO-HOO!

4:00 am – done.  peace.  relief.  ready to go for tomorrow.  at 9am the higher-ups start making their dog & pony show rounds, so i’d better hit the hay.  good thing staying up gaming & music-making ’til 4am every other night has conditioned me for this sort of thing.  :)
