Other folks were having the same issues with the hotel high-speed that I was. Advice given about areas of the buildings with best access to outside wireless. FOUND ONE!

The conference has been great so far. As usual, the two best things happened during sidebar conversations. But that's one reason to go to things like this. You talk to someone, and it triggers something.

I'm dreading Monday morning. It isn't that I don't want to go home--I do. But I have a 730am flight, which I knew I'd regret booking since I will have to leave the hotel by 5am, which means I will need to get up around 4 or so. It will be raining in Chicago that day, and I'm hoping oh so hoping that there are no weather delays. Please, no weather delays.

Haven't written a thing. Reexamining the current synopsis, which I think may be changed thanks to the conversations referred to above. I think it's all good.

Very tired, though.
