SQL, SmeshQL

posted April 5th, 2006 by Shannon

In helping George with his current coding project I have had to write lots of several simple SQL queries. There’s a piece of the project that will eventually be available for the client to manage themselves. But in the meantime, it is only accessible through the database. So anytime they find a mistake in the data they gave us, I get to go change it in the database. It was fun for a time, but now it’s getting old. Things would be easier if I’d just take the time to re-figure out how to use JOINS instead of going back and forth between querying table a and table b. But it’s not all bad. I still get to feel geeky – and get to write geeky posts like this one.

By the way, someone needs to start calling me at 10:30pm and demanding that I go to bed right away. I am up way too late…again.

  1. OK, tonight at about 10:30, listen carefully and you may hear your mother saying,

    “SHANNON, IT IS TIME TO TURN OUT THE LIGHTS AND GO TO SLEEP! You have to get up early in the morning.

    Did you hear me? I said, “RIGHT NOW!”

    Do I still see the lights on in that room???

    (One of my current son-in-laws said at Christmas that he use to put a towel on the floor in front of his bedroom door so his mother wouldn’t know he still had the light on) I don’t guess I ever thought to check for towels either… I love you! Sweet Dreams!
