Being Thankful

So, here we are at the LAX Marriot, waiting for Loscon to start tomorrow. A reasonably fast, uneventful trip, for which I am duly thankful. Especially, thanks to the kids, who were very calm and cheerful the whole way down. I'm also thankful for the hotel's fast net conection ($10/day, which is outrageous, but probably also pretty typical).

Beyond that, I'm thankful for (in no particular order) my family, my extended family in fandom and on the Net, our reasonably good health, a job that keeps me happily busy as well as gainfully employed, and the fact that there's always something new to learn.
