Dear reader, I have good news and bad news.
The bad news first: I won’t be attending Gnomedex this week. Circumstances just won’t allow it, and it doesn’t make a lot of financial sense for me at the moment to spend over $500 to party with my fellow geeks. Although it has been tempting, I just can’t do it. I hope to see some good mobloggin’ goin’ on if you’re going to be at the conference!
The good news: Instead, I will be saving my shells for a trip to Japan at the end of August! I am totally stoked… I have never been overseas (and Hawaii doesn’t count). Turns out Kev will be there on business, and I can tag along! Wow, this means I gotta get a passport…
More good news: Although I will not be at Gnomedex this weekend, I will be attending California Extreme in San Jose on Saturday. If you’re in the bay area, and you love arcade and pinball games, you simply MUST be there! I attended last year, and had a ball!
Bad news about Gnomedex, but great news about Japan. Wish I could take time off and go…
