(This is a repost from my LiveJournal) Brief recap time. Friday: Flight in not too bad, sitting at BWI playing FFXI while waiting for my friend Mike to call me to say he’s on the ground ends with a call about 10 minutes after his flight was supposed to land saying that he was still ... Read More

Router machine works! Should have wireless in the hotel room for access from PS2 and laptops. Next on the agenda is the acquisition of a box to carry stuff… that will be remedied tomorrow. After that… waiting for Thursday to do the final grabbing of stuff before airport→hotel→dinner→hotel+registration→???→PROFIT! …or something like that. At least preliminary ... Read More
