Wow, some of these bugs keep getting weirder. Juk was crashing in certain situations because a function which for the life of me appears re-entrant seemed to be unable to cope with being called multiple times. Or maybe it’s a side effect of changes the calling function was making. Either way, I didn’t have time to investigate too deeply, so I turned the code path into a poor man’s critical section.
In home news today, I bought some Tabasco sauce because my cat keeps trying to bite and chew the vertical blinds I installed since she destroyed the old horizontal blinds. Sometimes it’s like you can’t win, but I want to be there when she tries to bite on the blinds now that I’ve coated them in some hot sauce. Muahahaha. :)
Also, anyone who has cats can tell you that litter boxes smell. So what I also bought today was an air filtering device for the laundry room (which is where the litter box is). It’ll take time to see if there’s any effect, but that’s OK. I can wait.
Unfortunately, my air conditioning is broken. In the middle of summer. In Florida. Luckily I live right next to the housing office, so it’s not a long trip to give them a piece of my mind. :-)
