“I’ve got to make it through
\nNo matter what it takes
\nOh I’ve got to make it through
\nThese three strange days.” – Three Strange Days, School of Fish<\/i><\/p>\n

Monday: Domain controller in the lab ate itself. Machine locked up and had to be hard cycled. When we powered it back up, it politely informed us that there was no boot device available. Spent hours rebuilding it, stayed an hour late gratis.<\/i><\/p>\n

Tuesday: Production SQL server died. One drive in the RAID failed, and during the rebuild a second drive failed. Complete loss. Reloaded the server, stayed an hour and a half late gratis<\/i>.<\/p>\n

Wednesday: Same SQL server died again — machine blue screened after being completely reloaded from scratch. Looks like a hardware problem. For the time being, we’ve swapped out the box with another one and started the reload process again. Looks like lunch is not going to happen and will be staying until the reload’s complete. <\/p>\n

I lay down for a while
\nAnd I woke up on the ocean
\nFloating on my back
\nAnd staring at the gray
\nIt was completely still
\nExcept the pounding of my heart
\nBringing me back to life
