Rolling with the Phatness

Friday, August 21st, 2009

My wife called me up at work today. Our daughter had been to our annual heart-checkup at the hospital (she had major heart surgery when she was an infant) and although the operation itself was a success there was a small hole left, and it was impossible to tell how it would affect her when she grew up. At the scanning today the doctor told us that the remaining hole had closed up. Yeehaw – way to go girl!

This had me pretty much bursting with energy for the remainder of the work day. I spent it playing around with CouchDB and Scala. Both wicked (like wicked) good examples of quality software design where you can just tell that a huge deal of thinking was spend by a lot of bright people. Can’t wait to continue my adventures here.

While driving home the sun was shining and I had the windows down and the car stereo blasting No Diggity by Blackstreet, the newly purchased Wii Sports Resort safely on the passenger seat, and was simply having a blast. I wore the T-Shirt my wife gave me for my thirtieth. It says Rockstar Programmer ;-)
