So here’s a run down of my trip to #shmoocon:

Flew down on Thursday . Turbulence made me think I was going to die. I fly a lot and this was extra bad.

Friday: Snow storm back Home necessitated spouse to use snow blower. Spouse sticks fingers into snowblower with expected results. Fingers still there, but stitches and broken stuff.

Saturday: I present

Sunday: I watch someone spend $3000 on a star gate. The rest is details. Fly back home again think I’m going to die. Land at Boston, wait on tarmac for 2.5 hours for delta to get their poop in order. Drive home in snow storm.

Monday: lose power and internet from storm

Tuesday: still no power or internet

@nobletrout The $3000 stargate was legitimately shocking though
