UB3 END

That's it. Ultimate Blogger 3 comes to a close. I need a shower.

It feels pretty strange to be finished. UB takes up pretty much every available minute for the duration of the competition, and while it's initially very fun, the lack of sleep catches up with you. I've been drinking a lot more coffee than usual and still feeling tired all the time. My mind and body are still working in UB3 mode. I feel a nagging pressure to plan the next episode, but then I realize there is no next episode. It's like stepping out of a cloud of smoke and realizing how easy it is to breathe.

Of course once you are outside the smoke of UB3 you can clearly see all the projects you've been neglecting and how behind you are on everything. The next big thing is to ramp the IPO back up, but I have a backlog of ideas and notes that I've been scribbling down during the weeks of UB3.

Tonight we have a final farewell, and then it's on to the next project...
