Pushed a last minute refactor. Did not test. MR approved and merged. 2 minutes later I opened a hotfix MR for a logic error in that refactor. Everyone's gone home. That's tomorrow's problem.

woke up at 5:30 a.m. to go fishing. Put everything in truck. Drove to lake. Fished for four hours. Came back to truck. Opened covered truck bed. Discovered cat stowed away. He had jumped in before we left without us noticing. Lucky we found him!
