Can I have a life now?

I wrote a long blog post about Deployment Day Take Two and then I deleted it all because man, it was loooooong.
Almost as long as Deployment Day Take Two. Which ended up taking 30 hours (I took a five hour nap in the middle) and much of that time was spent typing frantic IMs and listening to conference calls where the team deploying the source application tried to rollback the deployment for entirely ridiculous reasons.
I'm still trying to process the concept that it's done. This is proving difficult for a variety of reasons.
This week I'm mostly bug fixing, working on the extra features requested for the end of the month, and sticking my fingers in my ears every time someone mentions rolling back the source application. Mostly because my part works, damn it, and it's being used by major clients already who will scream bloody murder if I have to pull it.
Anyway.
I'd reached the slightly hysterical stage of exhaustion on Monday, which may explain the flurry of bingo card posts (ALL THE BINGOS!) and the whole of Tumblr that day. Er, I tried to kill my beta reader with threats of what I'd write for kink_bingo. Heh ;-D
I've been trying to watch Looper as part of my Hugo voting prep and I'm starting to think I'll have to call it quits on that. So many nightmares and I'm only halfway through the two hour film. My imagination is too strong, it hits a few of my squicks, and I'm afraid to see how much worse it can get.
The idea is brilliant, the writing is strong...it's just not good for my mental health. At least I tried?
