maradyddI got about an hour and a half of sleep this morning.

enochsmiles went back to the land of chocolate and bureaucracy. The house will be very quiet tonight. I've gotten used to the quiet domesticity of humming laptops, fixing dinner or warming up leftovers, watching movies, cuddling up together at night. Dear CodeCon, please hurry up and get here, love always, Meredith. I suppose I will spend the intervening time finishing the unpacking, building bookshelves, making window treatments, and hacking on QBE, but it would also be nice to be able to do these things with him around.
I am now making actual contributions to the codebase at work, and as is typical (at least, typical with respect to my Adventures in Postgres), the moment I started actually touching the code instead of just reading it, things started going click click click into place. It has left me feeling a bit grumpy thanks to some typesafety behaviour which, um, I really can't talk about this in any great detail but let's just say I wish I could use the Boost MPL but I can't and socipherpunk, if you have some free time, I would like to bitch on your shoulder sometime soonish kthxbye(). Still and all, progress.
yoctohedron is off to more of the Noir City film festival tonight, for a couple of ambiguously described "SF noir" films; this could equally well describe The Maltese Falcon or Dark City, but I am too far from the city to be able to go investigate. I should really fix this eventually.
So, with that, off to dinner with $sysadmin. Those Bay Areans whom I have been neglecting, please feel free to thwap me upside the head once I have had some sleep.
