Day 0 (Thurday, August 18th)
Oh, hey boss man, can I have tomorrow and Monday off? I started packing late, and it went on into the night. Lisa came up to help, but really just spent her time on AIM with my friends. By about three I was reasonably satisfied that I had everything that I would need and nothing that I wouldn’t. I had a bag for electronics and a bag for clothes (and more electronics). Lisa said not to bring the power strip, which was a mistake, because the next day three of us nerdy guys would be fighting over every outlet in the room to charge our myriad devices. Two laptops, three cellphones, four cameras.

Wait… wasn’t this like 2 months ago?
It’s okay, I forgive you. I like the part where I ate New York. That was delicious.
Best opening note ever, I’m taking it for personal gain.

Yes, this was two months ago. I have a bunch of notes written up on paper at home. I dunno, I just wanted to get this thing out of my thing with the thing and the holy crap I need more sleep.
Don’t feel bad… It took me way, way, waaaaaay longer than two months to post my recount of my NYC trip. (http://newyork.xopl.com/ )
