And On This Farm He Had A Blog

@JeremyCherfas And the plot needs to be as twisty as a mountain trail.

@larand The CEO is out of the office. The warehouse guys are out of the office. A semi pulled up and I unloaded it myself. The UPS computer automagically updated again and WorldShip will not open. The phone is ringing off the hook. Bookkeeper keeps asking, "Do you think <customer> is having problems because they are filling out their 941 improperly?" I keep answering, "Isn't answering those sorts of questions what we pay YOU for?" CEO's wife repeatedly tells me, "There's a cake in the break room if you want some".

Typical Friday.

@c Somewhat. Vienna, West Virginia's anyway. A grate ate a baseball of mine once.

@jmreekes No but i've been meaning to.

@matigo That's more documentary than noir. Noir would go like this..

Try and Catch Naught

Mysterious untrapped exceptions appear at the eleventh hour. Follow project lead Sam Spicoli on a poorly lit debugging session that revisits bad decisions, worse Chinese take-out and a incompetent ex-employee named Kevin who died in a tragic hacky sack accident - Or did he?

Excerpt

Cody: "That's ridiculous, Sam. All of Kevin's modules were rewritten by a H1B. You're being too hard on yourself. Here, have a Starbucks. Take a break"

Sam: "Then why does e.message() contain, "I want my Gorillaz CD Back", Cody?

Muffled thump as Priti faints

Cody: "Priti!?"

Camera pans to Microwave Ramen cup splattered on the floor
Fade to black

Up entirely too late. Watched the new Ghostbusters with Sidekick again (I'm not a fan of the original let alone the new one¹. This was an act of love more than anything else)

We are definitely doing a Film Noir marathon tonight when I get home from work. I will have real movies playing in this house at least once a month

1. Except for Bill Murray. Love Bill Murray

@sumudu
He was chatting on Twitter earlier. Seemed a bit better.

Thinking of making Friday night a film noir night. The Third Man and The Big Sleep.

Maybe some real classics will take the bad taste of recent movies out of my mouth.

@kdfrawg Worth it.

@hazardwarning The smug look of satisfaction my mother gives me after years of, "You're going to pay for that when you get older" and me rolling my eyes at her. :)
