Played Sunday softball with Zuck and Dutton in Bratenahl. The league is usually lots of fun because everybody is friendly and relaxed. Well, today we played a bunch of assholes. I do not use that term lightly. Maybe they were just annoyed by our team's annoying manager, but I didn't enjoy playing them at all. Also, I barely played, and then when I did, I sucked. All in all, a most unsatisfying softball outing. So I played volleyball afterward and felt better.

Today I read from my copy of Programming Perl (”the Camel book” to those in the know), and spent some time cogitating on the oft-mentioned client project, hoping to foment a solution. I think I got one. Wow, what a case of brainblock. Next time I must make sure to understand the scope of the project before proceeding (with help from project management).
