Today is a nice rainy day... my favorite kind of day. Thanks Nature :D

Today in the life of storm dragoness... simple things that I have done many times and wrote runbooks and docs for are not working... and it is making these two emergency installs take way too long and there is no way I will finish them before I go on pto for my birthday... Also... being oncall and constantly harassed by pager duty is not helping either.

So glad I will be on PTO tomorrow... even if I'm still oncall until 7am.

Please send real life extraction team, I need exfil asap.

Okay.... fine... I get it.. not getting back to sleep. Stupid Oncall... Stupid mom texts right after I roll over to sleep some more.... then bullshit pages for decommed hosts..

Did I miss it? Oh..hmm Not sure this is terribly important! Currently low on sleep storm dragony thing. Transplanted from the right coast to the left one.
Strange facts: I read between 900-1200 pages of stuff a week... for fun I think. I wish I joking but I recently checked my kindle. In between that I pretend to be Ops Person and wing my way through it. Oh and somewhere there are games on a screen.. and tabletop stuff.

Also forking is cool. Would you like to know more?

Soooo tired... oncall sucks

And it turns out it was a false alarm because someone forgot to disable alerts on a system they were working on....

How to know this on call rotation is going to be hell... woken up 30 minutes after I become oncall.. thanks pagerduty I only needed 4 hours of sleep.

Oh yes it so very dead. Time for a new vm image and mounting the old one's data partition... then hope and prayers... followed by coworker apologizing to any engineers that lost data.

Meanwhile... I get to be the bad backup cop and say "THIS IS WHY WE HAVE DATA BACKUP PROCEDURES! PLEASE FOLLOW THEM!"

I hate Gentoo so much.

Coworker some how managed to murder modprobe. /sbin/modprobe is empty...

Then again doing a kernel update on a system with ext4 corruption... lol

Oh right... it is Halloween.. apparently.

And someone at work once again accused me of being a lizard person.. thankfully over slack because the first thing that popped into my head was more or less "NOOOO STORM DRAGON NOT LIZARD PERSON!!!!!!"

Brain to external communication filtering works much better over text..

Got my work Cloud-Ops t-shirt... now I need arts of a storm dragoness wearing a t-shirt with a like pictogram cloud and lightning bolt "Actual Cloud-Ops"

So sleepy... so hungry.. colonoscopy in 3 hours...

So damn hungry... but clear liquids only for another 20 hours x.x

Ugh... low fiber diet in prep for gut scoping is awful. I can not eat anything that tastes good.. and is healthy... or has red or purple in it.

But I can eat all the horrible chocolate (no nuts) and fatty food I want... except you know I've spent the last month and half dramatically changing my diet to deal with diverticulous.. so I have like nothing to eat and nothing on the list of stuff I can eat sounds appealing..

Ugh.. I fucking hate dealing with our UK datacenter. Techs make me feel like I'm dealing with 5 year olds. Inventory and docs are never up to date and they work 9-5 BST. The rest of our locations are 24/7. So by the time I wake up they have already gone home and I have to wait to day to deal with any confusion on their part. Oh and they don't understand reply all or use this address because I'm sleeping..
