Hotel arrival.

3 hours of sleep
3 airports
2 plane rides
1 cab ride
An unfamiliar hotel and the sinking realization that I do not know where any of the event locations are. I am going to get turned around frequently in the next few days. Also the hotel is full of unfamiliar people wearing badges and most of them haven’t a clue who we are. It is enough to make one feel insignificant. I turned to Howard and said
“Right now it is hard to believe that I’m going to have fun this weekend.” He agreed.

Thirteen hours of sleep later. Things are looking much brighter. We’re about to head out to the convention and fun will be had.
