This can usually be found on Twitter.
The contradiction in the title is easily explained: it was a fantastically good weekend on all counts, except in terms of "things I should have got done", of which basically none were done at all (arguably, I slept in for ages on Friday and Saturday because I stayed up late Wednesday and Thursday to push the first release of Graphics-Magick-Object, my first CPAN module). But the fact remains that, of the things I wanted to get out of the way this weekend, basically none got done. Botheration.
What did get done: much hanging out with friends, much minor exercise (walking about, playing squash, and suchlike), some meeting of new people (thanks to Logic Mills' excellent monthly boardgame get-togethers), much chatting and laughing and having fun, and a pile of shopping (including the surprisingly cute Corrine, Corrina). The food eaten was generally excellent too. So it was a truly fantastic weekend, except for the bits which weren't.
I'm going to forgive this excess (hey, anything which promotes socializing for me is probably better for my long-term happiness than any of this study-worky stuff), and - having paid restitution by publishing something on my programming blog - I'll get back to TaxonDNA/CITPM tomorrow.

"A beach house," he said, "doesn't even have to be on the beach. Though the best ones are. We all like to congregate," he went on, "at boundary conditions". "Really?" said Arthur. "Where land meets water. Where earth meets air. Where body meets mind. Where space meets time. We like to be on one side, and look at the other."
