thursday night – no camera

I forgot to take  a camrea with me today.. That’s a strange thing becaus eI use thta thing to record my day. Looking at the pictures helps me remember what I did that day. Without those pictures I sit here not sure that I did ANYTHING.. I must have.. bu i have no PROOF !

I seem to remember something about goign to the dentist at 7am.. I was suprised to see people up and smiling at that hour.. If I’m up then it’s because I’m still up fro the previous night. I sat down to wait y turn.. momentarily the dental lady came in and said “john” and I dutifully follwed here.. it wasn’t until shed poked and prodded me a bit that we both realized I wasn’t the john she was looking for.. that john needed xrays and cleaning.. this john had just had that done a few weeks back.

I must confess I was a little tempted to fall into the identity of the other John and see where his day would take him.. but ultimately I wimped out.

Thew erest of the day was a total catch up day.. meetings all day while I tried to dig myslef out of the whol of not handling email yesterday.. it seems it takes a day to catch up from a day off line .. I was pretty sleepy through midday..but I managed to get myself caught back up… at least with email.. if not with sleep…

In my email I did find:

 a cool pointer to a video that had been made from the the CUSP conference I presented at in Sept…  https://www.cuspconference.com/2009/#Cusp%20Conference

also a great podcast interview for the ionic Genius Roundtable

as well as two letters from long ost freinds..

not bad

Around 7 this eveing  Diane and I went to Essex High School to do a Lssons of the Colony talk.. 75 very cool and geeky folks there to support the loval robotics team. It was great.. I think I spoke for 2 hours.. then folks hung out and asked even more questions.   It was my 7th Colony talk.. they are so much fun to do..

Afterwards I had a minor swarm of students around me asking me geeky questions.. it simply doesn not get better than that !

Now I’m struggling to stay awake.. gotta sleep.. so more later.. Night all.. Night Sam !
