good start

i've been tired the past couple of days, i'm feeling like i need a vacation... i'm pretty sure everyone is, at this point.

highlights from the past two days:

1. i've just published a new version of my simple-free-encryption-tool that includes signature handling, and i'm stunned by how hard it was to find gather all the bits and pieces i needed to get it working for all three cases. considering all the open issues and forum posts i've encountered, i'm pretty sure i'm not the only one who needs this.

2. donuts! vegan cinnamon donuts from the deli next door, i know i shouldn't have gotten a whole box but there're only two left for tomorrow anyway...

3. the plumbers finally came in, we're lucky we insisted because it turns out the drip tray they installed was broken...

4. some minor work successes, even though it's another two half-days in a row

5. we're all enjoying the harry potter movies. no, they're nowhere near as good as the books, but they're still excellent in their own right.

right, now to see who's going to be the most uncomfortable about going out in the early morning. mr smear will probably fight to stay inside, but he'll probably enjoy it more once we've walked out the door.
