Earlier in the month I had a series of scheduled doctor appointments to check on the progress of my eventual deterioration and decay. I'm pleased to report that I am not decaying at any faster rate than would normally be expected for a person my age who more or less types for a living. Heart condition is stable, everything else is stable. We made one slight medication change that I'm starting to see some benefits from and will see more over the next few weeks.

With all of those tests and appointments out of the way, some people have asked what I'm currently doing. It boils down to this:

I'm writing code in a language I don't know, to massage data that I don't have into a format that hasn't yet been determined. This data will be imported into a database that does not yet exist, so it can be very quickly and efficiently categorized and grouped using an innovative new human interface that I haven't yet invented.

Oh, and I just bit my tongue, which is only newsworthy because I wasn't eating anything at the time.

Good times.
