Whats Happening?

  Let me see, whats going on right now? Work is a slight pause slow period while we get ready for the beta test of our latest release. In house testing is mostly done and not too many bugs this time around so it becomes the time when we wait to see if we have created what was actually needed by the customers. Then we get to put the final polish on it and do it all over again for the next release. I can't even count now the number of software releases I've been involved in. Generally they are anywhere from 2 to 6 a year and that has been over 16 years now. Good god that is a lot of software.

  Archer has settled in nicely, he has found a good spot on the office on the sofa here to spend his time on. I think once he realised he could sleep anywhere he tried out a few spots, even on top of the living room sofa and once actually stayed on my wife's lap for a bit (after being put there of course but still).

  Been very quiet around the house otherwise, we have barely seen anyone other than the odd delivery driver as parcels turn up. Living here really is very quiet now, especially since the neighbour over the road seems to have finished whatever construction they were doing. We barely hear anything from outside which is extremely nice.

  Other than that more game playing is under way. GTA 5 quite a lot although due to the size of that game I've still not finished it. I've also gone back to Borderlands 2 since they are running a competition at the moment where you kill a certain boss creature each day and get entered in to win a prize of $50k plus other weekly prices. Not bad for playing a game I enjoy. I doubt I'll win much but it can't hurt to try.

  So there we go, a good life here doing what we like in peace and quiet with our furry companions around us. Not a bad place to be at this point in life I think.
