I remember the days back when I was able to choose the stories I worked on. Now I rotate between being solo (and doing all) or leading the team (and picking up the ones others don't want).

Have an 8.5 hours flight back to the states. Sometimes I code the whole time other times I instantly fall asleep. Any bets on what it will be this time?

Successful completed my first database upgrade on a production app today! Had backups of course, but still upgrading a 5 year old db can be terrifying.
