How'd it get to be March already?
Through lots of frustration & booking 70+ hour weeks, we made the February 28 deadline for our deliverable, and turned it over to the customer. They're having a meeting right now on whether to turn it on to the world or not. We've done what we can.
Weekend before last, I travelled to Austin; had a 24 hour delay due to Swiss air delaying my connection to the transatlantic leg. Made for an evening in Zurich where I swam for a bit and kind of chilled out.
The week in Austin was mostly work, but around the edges I got to have some fun. There were a couple of good days to ride the motorcycle, and getting breakfast tacos on the rainy days made up for not riding the bike. My Dad & his girlfriend came down for the weekend, and Chaz fed them well. Saturday was rainy so our sight-seeing was a bit limited, but I think they had a good time in any case. Charles did his party for the Oscar presentation, and everyone played along with the 'red food' theme. His pictures aren't quite up there yet, but I imagine they will be soon.
I flew back on Monday, and took the train right to Hannover. With things teed up and ready to go, the team is going to work from their homes after today, which will be nice; 2 workdays from home and then no travel the week after! Quite civilized.
Of course coming back to Germany to below freezing temperatures & snow was a shock to the system after warm Texas.
