quesarah*sigh* Work, the perma-wedgie in my undies.
The beta testing project, which is the sole focus of my work existence, is held up due to factors beyond my control. External tester #1 hasn't written me back giving me an update on his progress, even after several polite emails from me asking for them. Due to a number of foul-ups (some of which were within my control)external tester #2 just received their beta test materials. Internal tester #1 had another project crop up in the middle of the evaluation and had to put my stuff on hold. And today, Internal tester #2 told me she won't be able to start work on the evaluation for another week or two. *headdesk*
Also, while my research and feasibility presentation was well-attended, everyone looked like zombies (yay, i love working for this group). It's hard to work up any enthusiam for a neat idea when everyone looks like they could care less about anything except going home for the day. And my boss Pasty the Wonder Mormon was more concerned about taking the opportunity to denigrate our primer designer software than putting any thought into whether we could develop products for this field.
Some days this place really makes me cranky.

Straight up the middle with maximum firepower. Whereas the british way was to sneak around the fringes and flank and do everything with minimum expenditure.
And, shit, this has rambled totally off into bizarro-land.
Anybody would think I haven't slept in days or something.
