Nor shall my sword

After I got out of work, we went to the hairdressers’. Rio decided that she wanted her hair cut short for the first time (like Kit Kittredge), and I think today I saw a strange change between little-girl Rio that was and teenage Rio to come, brief as it was. The hairdresser trimmed my hair and asked me about how it was working out that Rio had three parents living in the same house. Afterwards we went to eat somewhere and the server told me my hair was longer since last time; I think trimming the split ends causes an optical illusion of some kind. Rio and I played a maths game that she taught me, and I told her it would be ideal as a Python exercise. There was no time for a darts match tonight.

Several months ago I volunteered to help with the transition of GNOME Bugzilla towards 3.0, and I haven’t done much work on it since. However, I have come to the decision that potentially scriptable things which are unscriptable annoy me, and this particularly means websites which can only be interacted with by scraping. This has spurred me on to work on writing patches for upstream Bugzilla so we can get some kind of test version of 3.0 up for bgo. Things are going quite swimmingly well with this.

Alex was away on business, but he has returned. There was much rejoicing, for I missed him. Fin has a job interview tomorrow; think good thoughts for her.

Thank you to everyone who sent me suggestions and patches for blt; it’s been inspiring to get so much feedback. I have made a launchpad project for it. New version out soon-ish.

I have a big lazyweb/discussion post about metacity testing frameworks coming up, too, but that’s to come.
