Going to California
I’ve never wireless-blogged before, so what the hell. Currently killing time at Seatac waiting for a flight.
Off to the MySQL conference in San Jose. If there’s anyone on my FL in the area who wants to hook up for a beer or such, shoot me an email.
Alaska overbooked the flight and asked people to volunteer for a later flight in exchange for first class tickets and a free roundtrip anywhere they fly. The three of us (me and 2 workmates) agreed to take it.. so now we’re just waiting for the next flight. I wonder if that one is overbooked, maybe we can trade up again. First class on a later flight and 1 meeeellion dollars! I’ll have to ask. Will update later.

Apr 23, 06 at 4:17 pmWell of course I’m here.
I’m sad that I’m not going this year, I didn’t get around to registering, etc.
Maybe I can con the boss into letting me go anyway and expensing it. Hmmm….

Apr 23, 06 at 11:44 pmI will in fact be there! I just got the go-ahead to expense the $1500 registration, and just finished putting it through. I’ll see you tomorrow.
I’ll be attending the MySQL 5.0 Certification tutorials tomorrow (I stupidly didn’t go for them last year, and I continue to regret it).
See you tmmw!

It’s a wonderfully zen hot tub place. Clothing optional, big communal tub, smaller redwood quiet tub, huge sauna, cold plunge (from which I stay *way* away…) – just a great Santa Cruz kind of place :)
Are you mobile as in do you have transpo? I’d be available after 8 (teaching a knitting class until then, unfortunately). Tomorrow and Wednesday nights are clear on my calendar as well.
