It seems there's been another Great Outage. That's just great, my only remaining free night this week and LJ's down for the count. Super.
Oh well, maybe I'll actually work on a post to jam up their servers when they come back.
Camping, how great was that camping trip?
Awesome?
Nope.
It was so great it was
Hawesome!
But first, here are some

LJ wasn't the only one. The massive datacenter which they're hosted at went down... Oops.

From all reports, I missed a wonderful outing this year. I'm glad to hear you had an hawesome time and look forward to meeting you eventually.

And thanks for the pictures.

I see you were at Penguicon this year, as was I. If you've been to Cap, Windy or Duck in the last couple years we may have already met.
I tend not to remember people unless I've been introduced, although having a prop helps (I remembered McKana and his Swiss Navy Knife after meeting him once).

Penguicon, eh? I spent way too much of my time in the GT suite, serving Turkish coffee and baklawa. Unless you like (and had) The One True Coffee(tm), there's a good chance I missed you.

Cap and Duck tend to have scheduling conflicts for me. I've never been to Windy, but keep thinking "that's the only Chicago con that doesn't regularly conflict with something -- I should go." It's hard to give the Chicago crowd a hard time about not coming to Detroit-area cons when I make it there so infrequently.

Somehow, though, I still manage it.
