The week in review....

Haven't posted -- or had the desire to post -- to LJ for the past week.

The commute is wearing me out. As soon as I get home, I want to take a nap or go to sleep. At least I found a better, less clogged route to work.

Work is going well. Last week, I ran my script against the full data set. After 9 hours on the laptop, it ran out of memory. My boss advised me to rethink my strategy, and suggested a way it could be done. After about two days of rewriting code, it was accomplished. A couple more days of tweaking and it's pretty darn close to what we're looking for. I ran the script today against the full data set and it took only 6 1/2 hours.

Tonight was dinner with friends at China Cottage, and to celebrate [livejournal.com profile] dragon_pet's birthday. I was thinking about seeing Mother Grove at the Dublin Pub afterward, but my body's desire for sleep won out.
