Holding Pattern

by Sean - 21 October 2005

Two evenings ago, my partner said that she would work on a bit of code for 30 minutes, and call it quits for the night. After two hours, she was still working at it. I went to bed. Last night, she was going into the (home) office for a quick cigarette and we’d watch a movie. A bit over two hours later, she emerged. I’d been waiting for her.

I woke up this morning with a song in my head, slightly modified. I’m sure you’ll know where these lyrics come from:

Singin’, "this’ll be the day that I die.
"this’ll be the day that I die."
