and everything is on more fire and my entire team is up after midnight for them (East Coasters) and we are scrambling to build replacement servers.. yay.

sucks :(

lol... and first discussion of meeting is trying to get the public furry to go put his fursuit head on while we wait for the VP of Ops/IT to join the meeting...

and lol we rolled back our mfa deployment after azure mfa broke everything, keeping the senior ops folks up until like 3am trying to fix it... so everyone is exhausted like me!

Seriously... why is the default reauth time 3600 seconds, microsoft? Who the fuck needs to MFA reauth every hour?

Blah up 2 hours early for a meeting 3 hours before my shift starts :(

Bleh come back from my day off and we've started using jira service desk... and everything is new and a mess.

Ugh... my little fixing busted mysql slaves side project turned into a OHFUCKEMERGENCY today and I got called into an hour long meeting on my 1 day off until next Wed.. and get to look forward to a major project tomorrow.. ass ton of work because the rest of my team is not comfortable doing it.

All because noisy monitoring got turned down too much and broken things were missed.

Fuck me.. could someone please relocate me to an ocean side cabin with good net and feed me storm dragon treats.

Weird Dreams, dragons, police, why did procedural crime drama invade 

And yes @mawr was the momma dragon in my dream for some reason... very mad momma dragon that just wanted her egg back.

Weird Dreams, dragons, police, why did procedural crime drama invade 

Wicked strange dream that was really vivid, I don't normally remember my dreams either.

There are some gaps so I'll start where I remember. Also gods damnit I need to steal my dreamself's hair.

I started writing it here but it got long... so just stream of consciousness ed it out some where.

docs.google.com/document/d/1ct

And then our sensu cluster went up in smoke and we lost the database...

400+ silenced alerts unsilenced and reasons for silences lost...

thousands of pages for systems down... as 2 of the 4 nodes died in a fire.

ugh... I woke up feeling like I got trampled in my sleep.

Bleh today is a work from home day... and my right hand is acting like I done a ton of hard on hands stuff... when yesterday was very light on hands... must of done something in my sleep.. could be explained in the contortionist pose tangled and twisted in blanket I woke up in.

Shouting at the ether 

On top of that I have a headache... probably from getting 5 hours of sleep (thanks body)

And my hormones have decided today is a sensitive squirmy day...despite last blood work showing super low t-levels.

So I'm trying to fix this stupid box while feeling hazy, horny and squirmy and argh!
Also meat I was planning on cooking is still frozen solid after sitting in the fridge for 2 days and submerged in cool water for 4 hours so have to come up with alternative dinner plans

Shouting at the ether 

Blah... volunteered for a project to learn a thing that supposedly there was documentation for.

Engineering built all but one of the boxes without asking any one in Ops this morning while I was sleeping... said engineer then dumped the box he couldn't get an image in my hands and asked me to finish the project because the jira issue was still assigned to me. D:

So trying to sort out why a thing I've never done is not working.. and all help is gone for the day.

bleh... pager crap has been non-stop.. not only that but a not small number have been false alarms but the time it takes to determine if it is a false along is the same time it takes to fix if it is broken. I fucking hate mysql clusters.. 30 minutes and I get my first weekend in 2 weeks... this 4 on 1 off 4 on 1 off 2 on 2 off schedule is burning me out hard..

I just want to curl up in a little ball of hate right now.

Today I spent all day beating slaves in to behaving.

I hate mysql clusters.

Also brain is like... wanna write... body....

HI DID YOU KNOW THESE PARTS OF A DRAGONESS ARE SUPER SENSATIVE I'M MAKE YOU SQUIRM! HAVE FUN ESPECIALLY SINCE YOUR PLANS FOR THIS EVENING MEAN THIS WILL NOT GET RESOLVED.

Also... fuck 1-9pm work schedule on friday nights..

End rant.

Ugh... crashing hard all of sudden.. Headache, exhaustion, just want to nap. No focus...

Worst part of working from home on the weekends.. I so desperately want to take a nap right now.. AC is keeping my room cool.. bed is right over there... but.. pager coverage..

Ugh... can't tell if my shoulders, neck and back are sore from the dude that backed into on my way to work today or from carrying a 125lb server + box into fedex from my car..

Suddenly reminded I need to knock the rust off my python skills.. :(

Current position does not allow for much scripting due to my responsibilities and a dedicated team that build our tools and automates anything they can already

Fabric is pretty cool though I do use it fairly frequently..

Stormy Dragon! SFW 

I don't think Adalfyre has a masto but OMG I need to share this amazing piece she did for me!
