Evening, all. Long night last night... simply put, I had to release a new version of the software I'm responsible for today. Why? Because it's been getting close to being ready for a while, and I had two new customers this month. I didn't want to send them the "old" stuff, since the new version adds some really cool things that make their lives a lot easier.
So I wanted to send them the new stuff... only it wasn't ready. I had until today to get it ready, because even though we got their orders several weeks ago, we can't recognize the revenue (and I don't get commi$$ion) until we ship.... so last night, I finished up the last couple of things I needed to do before releasing it out to ship.
At 7AM this morning, I finally got the last bits done and sent it down to release, where they burned CDs and shipped it out today. I went upstairs to where my wife, who just woke up a few minutes before, looked at me and asked if I'd gone to bed.
Fifteen minutes later, I had [img]graemlins/sleeping.gif[/img]
Then two hours later, another customer called, wanting a proposal so they can give us some work (and pay us money, too). I guess I'll give up some beauty sleep for that...
So I'm planning on going to bed shortly... 'cause man, am I out of beauty sleep!
