Using my Migration

To the tune of REM's Losing my Religion
-------
Ohhhh crap, that figures

Figures, the table dropped,

it was not me,

the lengths I had to go thru,

to set the schema ids,

oh no, I forgot to auto

Increment

Thas me in the corner,

coding to the moon-light,

using my migrations,

thank god I didn’t start on the views,

maybe it was faith I didn’t do it,

cuz, I didn’t set those keys

to primary,

wiped my brow n started laughing

imagine I deployed this thing?,

The thought just makes me start to cry,

Every SQL

Every timestamped file

I’m adjusting my migrations,

This time with pair programming

Like a hurt, lost, blind fool…fool

Oh no, I start to blush,

Duped columns in a rush

Consider this,

Consider this, the developer I could be

Consider this,

if mistakes

don’t get to me,

Breathe

fixed migrations, typed rake db

executed without a sound

I started tux,

Yes I am so happy

Inserted the new values

So, happy that I started to cry

Turns out it was all a dream,

It was all a dream

Take it as lesson,

Never code by moon-light

and double check my migrations

Localhost all my views,

Then I hope this post influence,

Folks to be fluent

in other O-R-Ms

You’ve got DataMapper,

Sequel and ActiveRecord,

I think you should give them all a try,

Only dropped in the dream,

relax, sigh, nom french fries,

Only dropped in the dream,

in the dream

just a dream, dream

Note: If you drop, migrations will only bring back the structure of your table, your data is as gone as yesterday…sowwie =(
