1 I was so hot to prove to myself that I could do the Big Update on both
2 systemd and openrc gentoo machines that I didn't spend much time actually
3 *using* gnome-3.8 until yesterday.

5 Have you ever lived or worked in a building during a big remodeling? With
6 most of your living/working space completely (but temporarily) demolished?

8 For me, that's gnome-3.8 :(

10 I spent all day today reverting my main desktop from ~amd64 to amd64, and
11 I'm happy to be back home in gnome2 :) I'm very grateful to the gentoo
12 devs for keeping gnome2 available, BTW. Some distros don't give anyone
13 that option.

15 I don't hate gnome3, honest and truly. I hate living in gnome3 during
16 the Big Remodel, that's all. Same goes for systemd, but I find systemd
17 more useable than gnome3 at this time.
18
19 I'm hoping to see both projects start to feel like home to me, but today
20 is not that day.

22 Meanwhile I see other windmills to tilt at :)
