Guess what? I am back at home after a few flight delays yesterday that really weren't so bad. And our house wasn't burned down. If any of you readers are firefighters, I want to publicly state that you all are the only reason we still have a home. So, moving on with my life....I still need to cut the wrist band off my arm (the one that proves I am a convention attendee). Once that's done, I really am done with the convention, I suppose.

I circled the globe in one hour Friday night. The 7 people I met at our International Reception took me from one side of the world to the other and reminded me of how far IDEA's reach has become over the years.
