travel

In a handful or so of hours, I'm headed off to Dragon*Con down in Atlanta. It's been a few years since I've gone, but this time is even more special than a triumphant return to a big party.

Another day full of learning and trying to stay awake.

Oh, and fun.

Stayed up a little too late last night, and, for some reason, woke up before my alarm went off, ruining any good solid sleep I would have had.

But, I made it to the first session on time and was surprisingly lively until the afternoon sessions rolled around. Then I couldn't keep my eyes open... my ears were still pulling in the sound, but the head and eyes drooped something fierce.

Today's brain-filling menu included:

Was much more awake and alert today than I was yesterday... and I ended up with just as much useful info crammed into my brain.

I was also struck, yet again, by that vague feeling of being totally adrift.

There are people here who are genuinely passionate about Drupal and the work they do with it. Me? I see it as a very effective tool for accomplishing important tasks. If something considerably better came along, the only thing that would keep me using it would be force of habit.
