Back to it, kinda

There is no describing the relief enjoyed by two parents whose child is being watched by his grandmother while they catch a movie and a pint of beer together. That was the highlight of Saturday. Sunday, sharing our new church with Grandma Spag, and then going to a good friend's wedding. Many kids there, which was great for Michael. He also had a great time crawling around the reception space.

Today: still at home because my seminar with Edward Tufte doesn't start until 10am. The seminar is on the visual display of information. I was first introduced to this fellow at a conference in May, and he's since popped up everywhere. I was lucky enough to get my fees reimbursed by the library, which is good because otherwise quite pricey. It will be nice to be out of the office but still be professionally "on the clock". I wonder where I will have lunch?
