Various Forms of Brain Damage

It's been that sort of day.

I spent much of the day at work trying to untangle some of my code that interacts with the Java UI. I have never worked with any of the Java UI code before last week and it is behaving in some extremely mysterious (and sometimes just outright weird) ways. I suspect I will end up sending an email later this weekend begging for an explanation of the weirdness, because I need to sort out the problem and move on. We'll see how that goes.

Meanwhile, I picked up my guitar during a compile and decided to play "The Boxer". My recollection is that playing it in the natural key of G has been causing me to bottom out on the low notes, so I dropped a capo on the neck to move the song up a full step to the key of A.

And then I proceeded to sing the whole song an octave up. Happily, it turned out that I *could* sing the song an octave up, but if I was going to do that, then why did I need the capo?

Brain damage. Clearly brain damage.
