Mind numbing
Mostly I like what I do, but there are days that the programs I'm working on need to have a lot of lookup tables, of something similar and there's just no way to generate them. So I end up slogging through, tediously typing out line after line. There is no creativity or thought to any of it. Just the drudgery of data entry. The last two days have been like that and it burns me out like nothing else can. My brain starts to shut off and I turn into a zombie. Bleck.

And on the 7th day, Apple invented Itunes :-) Data entry sucks, sometimes in situations like this I like to write a program to write the programs...but it's not always possible.
