That's fantastic, brenda. Considering how much they've leaned on you and expected from you, it's well deserved.
Big stop just to renew your license to companion. Can I use companion as a verb?

Yay, Brenda!
That's not a thing where you guys are?
We have very hard water here. Maybe it's because of being mountain runoff or something, In any case, Hubby was having continual kidney stones before we switched to only drinking bottled water rather than our tap water. When we did that, the kidney stones went nearly completely away.

We have very hard water here.
Lake Michigan water is pretty hard, too. But I love the way it tastes--best tap water in the country, imo.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Jesus. That was the salesiest call I've made in the last little while. I'm living breathing and sleeping this project. I want...I don't know what I want for it, but it had better be good.
They gave me this user's contact information, saying he used the premium featureset we were integrating with, so I should talk to him about the user experience. Turns out, no, he's not a premium user, so useless for my needs, but I have a couple minutes on my hands: I pitch premium to him, pitch the upcoming integration, and pitch my April 2011 project to him. Man, he likes to talk. He even asked for my email address. So we can continue getting closer? I have no idea.
