Off to GUADEC

Heading to the airport shortly to fly to GUADEC/GCDS.

Doing a bit of an airport tour: Perth, Singapore, Paris, Madrid, Las Palmas; then Las Palmas, Madrid, Gatwick; then Heathrow, Paris, Singapore, Perth. It's like the days of yore, when you had to stop all the time to refuel.

When I get home, there's a week left in Perth before our stuff is uplifted for the move to Melbourne. Have spent the morning packing books into boxes. Steph is going to finish most of the packing while I'm away.

sevastopol is taken!!

"Steph is going to finish most of the packing while I'm away."
you'd better bring her a veeeeery nice present. packing almost everything without you will suck for her!

p.s. i don't think i've told you how much i like your icon.

I'm totally intimidated by all the packing I have to do! I'm going to start straight away, in the hopes that it might make it easier. (wishful thinking, I know)

If you need a hand, I'm happy to help (and it's a good excuse to catch up)

You're back in Perth? Since when? :D

Of course, now we're in Vancouver.

Also I'm totally skipping her birthday again. I'm going to be on the lookout for something nice, otherwise it might have to wait until we are closer to Brunswick Bound.

I like my icon too. I edited it from what's on my t-shirt. I actually think the icon looks better (if I do say so myself).

From memory its $20 per box. So it's actually cheaper than quitting work a week early. But you never think of it like that.

You're moving to Melbourne? o.O How did I miss this?
Did you post it under a page of Linux code just to trick me? :)

(Not that I ever see anyone in person anyway, I just feel I should keep track of these things)

It's possible that only Steph had mentioned it. I've not been blogging much lately.

But then how did I miss it on her lj? (rhetorical question) I probably got it mixed up with a discussion of short term trips.

Never mind. Anyway. Good luck with all the packing and organisation etc.

This is all a diabolical plot by the penguins to disappear out of our lives without a trace and then pretend it's all our fault! I cannot let this happen because then everyone will want to do it.
