I'm back to that business trip I mentioned a few days ago. I was supposed to be finished on Friday, but I think maybe I'm the only one who was still holding out any hope for that. I came back to San Diego late last night (after a lovely all-expenses-paid trip back to my house to do laundry) and I will stay here until we are done. By now it's looking a little less grim. We've got only a few things left to do, and I and my team might finish within (sigh) two days of the initial deadline.

So I thought "Wow! We've made great progress!" and when I got kicked out of the partner company's building precisely at 6:30 as expected, I went to my hotel's free happy hour before heading upstairs...

... and boy was that a mistake. I can barely THINK. I couldn't operate the ELEVATOR. (I went to the floor I'd been on last week.) CJ, reminder to self: you are a lightweight when it comes to wine. Especially if you haven't had eight hours of sleep in a row for multiple weeks.

Man, was that ever dumb.

Well, in another couple of hours I ought to be conscious again, and then maybe I can fix a few bugs.

It's really humbling to find myself unable to operate an elevator. Dayum.
