BSDCan

It’s now noon. I’m caught up on my email. I’ve fixed a small problem with the PGCon website where payments were going to bsdcan.org not pgcon.org. Both wind up with me, but it can confuse someone who does not know the two conferences are heavily connected. I’ve responded to a tutor who wanted to ensure […]

Just after midnight Friday morning, it started. Terrible stomach aches. It lasted all night and all day. It’s now Saturday about 10:30 AM and I still feel crap. I’ve spent most of the past 36 hours in bed. I’m sipping a peppermint tea hoping my gut pain goes away. It’s time to catch up on

Thursday – wrapup It is now 2224. I’m in bed. Detroit beat Dallas. Significantly. After leaving Starbucks, St Laurent, I head downtown for the OCUUG meeting. St Laurent you say? Yes. I was at Elmvale Acres shopping center getting my watch fixed. One of the strap pins was loose and the watch kept falling off.

It is now 1642. Lately I have printed badges and invoices for both BSDCan and PGCon. More will be printed later, but this is the bulk of the printing.

I was awoken today at 4 AM by a truck reversing. You know those lovely beeping sounds. Hmm. And this was with earplugs. It was loud. By 7 AM, I was in my car on the way to my “office”. So far, I’ve managed to send off a letter of invitation to Australia and another

I’m now at Eric’s for dinner. Leisa will be home after a meeting. The kids are upstairs on their computers. It’s 1631 as I type this. After my last entry, I headed out to Barrhaven to pick up mail at the Greenbank location. I had quite a bit waiting for me. The UPS Store staff

It is seven days before the first tutorial for BSDCan. It is 9:44AM. I’ve been up since 7 and doing email since 8:00AM or so. I’ve processed another few registrations that came in overnight. I’ve arranged an ATX power supply for one of the speakers. I’ve also contacted Les Suites to arrange more rooms. I’ve

It is now 10:30 PM. I made it to the dinner in reasonable time. It was at the same place as the last time I was out to dinner with this group. Nice Thai on Merivale Road, across from Canadian Tire. After catching up a bit, we headed over to the OCLUG meeting. I saw

I have just finished the first pass of processing BSDCan Registrations. If you are registered, you should have your confirmation now. If you do not, then something has gone wrong.
