Travels with Plink and Cthulhu

[mdlbear]

Yesterday was travel day -- pretty much a total write-off given a noon flight and a 3-hour time difference. We did manage to get dinner and hang out in the con suite for a while.

Colleen had a lot of trouble with the lack of legroom in the plane; thank goodness it was only a 5-hour flight, with no plane changes.

Forgot batteries for the H2 (and they're *expensive* in the hotel!); that seems to be the only major lack so far. The XO may not have been the best choice of computer; its "terminal" app seems to be failing to pass all of the control characters through. That makes using emacs problematic -- I'll have to see whether I can even post this. I'm *very* glad I thought to bring my Linksys travel router, though, since the XO also doesn't have ethernet.

Yesterday went relatively well. No major disasters that I know of, I made some kind of chicken fajita thing that came out really nicely.

BTW, could you inform mamacat that Ramona & Daniel are coming Monday instead? Call us (Liz) for details. Andrew has yet to show up by this point.

OK, but if they show up Monday they're not going to get paid until the next time they come over -- we didn't leave any money for that. And somebody will have to be around to supervise.

Like I said, Dad: have mom call Liz for details on that point. I'm not sure about it, myself.
