This is to mark January 21, 2011 as the conclusive end of perhaps the defining sub-plot in the GSG story.
Alright, so I borrowed a line from something I wrote before, but I couldn't think of a better way to describe what has happened today. There's a lot of joy, there's a lot of relief and there's a lot of vindication in the belief that people who put their heads down and work hard eventually get what they want. But most of all, there's immense pride. For something that has been a looming sub-text in, quite frankly, both our lives for eight days short of six years now, it seems improbable to believe that this, too, has passed.
But it has. And she has. And that's something that's going to make us (and a lot of other people besides) remember today for the rest of our lives. What an absolutely "brillaint" day. :)
