OutOfJuiceException

Oh, gods. If you don't have a life, do yourself a favor and don't get one or at least postpone it as much as you can.

So, I started my new job on Wednesday. The great thing about this job is that we have no work horus. Sure, we have to clock in the usual amount of week-hours, but how and when and in what chunks we do them doesn't matter. So, I decided to be smart and do long days to start with, now that I still have the enthusiasm. Mistake. I've been quite dead since I started.

Not that it would matter. Once I get home, I unwind, get something to eat, act social and then it's already time for bed. Not that this would matter either, as I'm mentally spent after trying to get familiar with the new tools I'm going to fiddle with.

So, no, LightFrame has been at an stand-still for some time now. From what I remember, I'm trying to abstract a boolean datatype for the SQL, which, surprisingly, exists only in PostgreSQL natively. MySQL loves ENUM(), and SQLite doesn't seem to care much. And I've lived in a small fear of the vision of having to rewrite Fields. They're clunky, at best. But at least I can take some pride in having implemented a nicer O/R mapping than what Hibernate seems to be.
