I had a production deployment this weekend starting at 6pm on Friday night.  I woke at 7 am, getting to sleep in a bit, since I figured I'd do a half day from home, then relax for a while.  I ended up working all day, right up to 6pm.  Got on the call at 6, and hung up at 6:15, to call back in at 7pm.  I call in at 7, and did not get off the phone until 12:30am on Sunday.  Sunday morning, we had more to do, so back on the phone at 9:30am.  We finally finished up at 3:30pm.  Yesterday, I got to the office at 7:30am, and left at 8:00pm.  I had another call at 11pm that lasted until 12am.  Back to work at 7:30am today, and have been on the phone since 8:00am.  So, 46.5 hours from Friday to Sunday, and looking at 24 hours between Monday and Tuesday. Then, to just add insult to injury, I have some younger developers working on another project with a deadline.  I asked them to each put in 8 hours over the weekend to get caught up. 3 out of 5 of them decided they didn't want to work. IT sure can suck.

I just got my early access notification for SWTOR.  Unfortunately, I'm exhausted, so I don't know if I'll get any play time in tonight.
