Shannon Larratt is Zentastic

OK, we don't leave until morning (very, very early morning), but I'm finishing up my packing and preparations, so while I'll be online, this is my official signout sheet from this trip. Big thanks to Barry and Jen (and Malarky too) for hosting us here in their little mountain paradise.

A lot of travelling to do over the next little while… In about a week I think I'm off to Las Vegas for a wedding, then I'm off to South Carolina (or maybe Illinois) for Christmas, then perhaps back to Santa Cruz for a few days… After that I may have a break if Rachel and Jen make it to Japan in January (and then perhaps we'll meet them in Hawaii on the way back) — although I may have to head up to Canada both for the election and to renew my passport — and then it's back to Africa in February. Then there's ModCon V in the spring, followed by BMEfest in the summer…

Ack! It sounds like more fun than it is… As much as it's wonderful to be able to shoot all over the world, sometimes it would be nice (at least from this introverted programmer's point of view) to know that for six months you don't have to go anywhere except your compiler!
