This is the part I've always like the least--trying to corral all the many hundreds of shards into something coherent. At this point, I've got most of it worked out, and now I'm making that final pass over everything to tighten everything up without actually tightening everything up.

And yes, I'm using Basecamp to track it, which is a little bit like using a bucket of gasoline to put out a match.

In other words, entirely appropriate.
