Moved house

I was amazed this morning that it's only been a month since I moved house. So much has happened since.

For reasons that I won't go into, I've had to move house. Since I like living in Mechelen, not too far from work, however, I decided to search for something close by. And I did find something close by; I moved to "just around the corner". Which is a bit silly, but then blame the bureaucrats.

At any rate, I'm starting to feel at home in the new spot. It's a bit smaller and a bit more expensive than the old place, but it looks a lot better, and that more than makes up for it. And it's not like I needed the extra space in the old place -- I kept having this big empty spot in the middle of my living room, anyway.

To make matters more interesting, I've been on stage three times and out of the country once in this past month: One wedding, two concerts, and a work trip to Cork. I guess that's why it seemed like so much more time.

But that's over now, and recently I finally managed to make some time working on other projects. Today it was incorporating some patches (which turned out not to work entirely) and doing a release for nbd. That release was overdue by quite a bit; there were a few fairly serious bugs outstanding that I had commits for in the git repository already, I just had to get them out there. Oh well.

A few weeks back I've also managed to work a bit on ipcfg some more. The reason it has been so long since the last time I worked on it was that I had started to realize there were several things wrong with it, and I wasn't sure how to best move forward. But then not so long ago I had an epiphany, and I've now started to reimplement the broken bits—which is, well, most of it. But hey.

Moving isn't fun. Glad it's over. Almost.
