Multitasking
At the moment, I have my Palm syncing with my XP box, I'm transferring fund between accounts --today is payday-- and writing this update on my iMac, checking e-mail on the Linux box and I'm logged into the office with my office laptop. Ah, the miracles of modern technology fuelled by large quantities of caffeine.
We're 99% packed & ready to leave at 11 AM for a weekend of square dancing in Pennsylvania. Kent still has to collect his new glasses from the optician's; we're waiting for
zzbear and Mark to arrive before we do the final stuffing of shoes & handbags luggage into the minivan. I have a 10 AM conference call I could weasel out of, but since I have nothing better to do and it is on a project dear to my heart, I'll call in; that, and doing so turns today into an abbreviated work day instead of a vacation day, thus preserving my vacation allowance for more important events --like sleeping in-- later in the year.
A/C square dancing last night was fun... John Marshall was calling, using a mix of gentle, challenging and truly demented A2 material (not dancing C1, I can't begin to determine the level of difficulty there). Our squares handled most of the A2 stuff relatively well, although we did crash & burn a few times. He and I had a chance to chat before & after dancing, and since he's calling with Pennsylvania this weekend with Anne Uebelacker and
billeyler, I'll see him again in a few hours.
I talked up a number of the other A2 dancers concerning Ett's C1 proposal while I had the opportunity. The two I most expected to be interested are indeed keen on the idea. One person was conditional. Three more were either "no" or "hell no!" There are still a few more who weren't in attendance I need to ask, and a few bodies from Baltimore and surrounding areas who might be interested. More news as it comes up.

It's amazing when you stop to think of all the things you can do at one time, I sometimes have those moments when rendering video, paying bills, chatting to a friend at the other side of the Atlantic whilst remote controling a server from home.
Have a great weekend ... one day I'll understand what all those A2s and C1s mean ;0)

If we ever meet in person some day, I'll be sure to explain it all. :-)
Road Trip!
