Wonko + Technology = sleeplessness

I have a problem with focus. I have always had a problem with focus. Its not that I can't focus on any one thing, its that I get too focused on one thing. In this case, its the Kittredge Intranet (for lack of a better term). Its coming along well, and is gonna be even better then I or any of them expect. Certainly, I've done larger projects, but I've never done a project this large, alone, from start to finish. Its a monumental task, which explains why its so tough just keeping it all in my head. I've got to network the physical office, get all the machines online and talking to each other, while at the same time secure the office from intrusion and each other. Then I'm setting up a single machine that will be the webservers for both Kittredge and P3. It will also do DNS, have a customer database, and have lots of virtual mail accounts.

For the mail I've decided to make it easy to administer and use, so I'll have web based user administration as well as give the users the ability to check and manage their mail over the web. Plus I'm adding spam and virus filtering to the mail server.

Anyway, I've been up late every night, getting up early every day. Its tough. I hope I finish some day. It doesn't help that its memorial day weekend, so they scheduled me tons of hours at the shop itself. Its 2am and I have to get up at 7am tomorrow to be at work at 8. I'll get off at 6 and get right back on the computer. The problem is, I'm always so close to that next solution to the current problem. Its difficult to put it down. Oh well. Off to sleep.
