houston

Houston, we are clear for launch. Q1 is launching today, with only a handful of second-priority bugs left to do; my project manager says she doesn’t remember a quarterly launch with so few bugs, which is very gratifying.

The bit where Katharine Hepburn tells her friend Hillary off and sends her packing caused the audience to hoot and cheer and clap, which was *great*. Then we came home and got Shaun and went for some ice cream, and…
