But I Don't Wanna Go To Work


Yeah so, today is one of those days where I'm just getting that crazy anxious feeling, where going to work is the last thing I want to do and I just want to hide under blankets and feel better... but sadly, it can't be avoided.

I woke up, barely, and finished a programming assignment by adding comments, and then submitting that, and from then I made lunch, which was a ham sandwich, and watched a little bit of Mythbusters and Cash Cab, and eventually put on Grown Ups, the Adam Sandler movie.

While watching the movie, I did some more programming work, finishing the ability for my new admin panel to edit existing entries, and in order to make my old system work with this new system, I had to change some things in the old database and the old code, which is way more challenging than you'd think, so back when I wrote the code, I wasn't quite as organized. It was tough, but it now works seamlessly together to add and edit entries on to the website. I had to modify the way the old website (ie. the site you are on right now) views user access levels. So, if you think there is a problem, in that you aren't seeing the entries you are supposed too (either too few or too many) please let me know, but with the minimal testing, I think it's working.

So now that the new panel can add and edit, I just need to add in the ability to delete entries (not that I do that ever) and then go back to the drawing board and figure out if I want to add any more features. I should probably create a way to remove or change the access rights of registered users... and perhaps that will be my next goal. After that, I begin the dangerous steps to redesigning the front-end website, the website you use to view and interact with my entries.

We'll see how it goes, I like keeping my goals small, so I can accomplish things on a daily basis and not get overwhelmed.

I guess it's time for me to get ready for work and go. I'm scheduled for five hours today, 4pm to 9pm, but hopefully I won't have to stay the entire duration, as I'd like to get home by 9, rather than 10:30pm or something. This week went by really fast, and that's disappointing.
