I dreamed that I left Helen to get back together with my ex-wife. Worse... I was _certain_ it was the right thing. I was left explaining to everybody -- Helen, Beau, Matt, my family -- why I was happy to be back with her.

I'm gonna remember this one. I like this a lot.

Can I just say... I really want to go back to Montreal with @jeamland, @bitprophet, and everyone else from PyCon?

I'm more likely to spend 2-3 hours revamping the build and release automation.
