fucktcpd is kicking my 455
The venue:
MorningStar76 "coffeehouse and den of sin", the same place that put the jitter into the jitterblog.
Sitting, watching the many varied personas walking around, sitting, playing cards, chess, livejournalling, or just looking at me funny.
Smoke filling my lungs so much I wish I smoked. Certainly will be showering before hitting the sheets this eve... nothing new there. A curly-red-haired boy (yes, you read that right) "flitting" around... everyone being some version of more or less themselves... or the facet they put on when out with friends. Interesting to watch what people make of themselves when in various environments. I enjoy people-watching.

But that's really just me shirking the job at hand. Taking a break from having my butt royally kicked by fucktcpd. I'm trying desperately to break fucktcpd by simple deadlisting... and I'm just not there yet. As you can tell, I've picked it back up... and oh. what a pleasant reunion, feeling it's entrails trickle down my spine as my brain fully bytes into the juicy code. The feeling of being naughty comes back in a welcome sense of alternate reality. One where bits really make a difference... one where appearances do not... one where politics are nowhere to be seen... and communication with the outside world requires translation. Ahhhh, sweet l'amour.

I'm sitting, looking at the deadlisting, attempting to ignore the distractions of people walking by, some more respectably clad than others. One mom wears an outfit with "Juicy" across her behind as she accompanies her 13-year-old daughter to a cup-o-joe.
It's really a small snippet of code? I've split out functions, split off the calls to outside libs, split off the glib startup and destructor code, and I'm left with "drop_privs", "checksum", and "server_loop"... symbols have been stripped so that's just my name for them.

As Evanescence and Blue Man Group set the mood of driving angst, I lament the missing vulnerability... Still, continuing onward and downward. Sure the end result will be my continued education, I bid you adieu as I get back to work.
