Toil

Deadline day today and inevitably, what should have been two hours of light worked turned into an intense full-day rollercoaster of exploding computers, inconsistent connections and screen-burnt exhaustion. Not a day I hope to repeat, but hopefully the job is done, a paycheck can now be claimed and I can pay the rent, the phone-bill and get the Greek out of the pawn shop, where I traded him for a pack of rizla and some mini-cheddars. So please god of half-sensed programming jiggery-pokery, please bless my much endeavoured efforts with your magic unix hands. I try great one, I try.
