My beeping watch awoke me, and as I thrashed my way out of my sheets to turn the infernal noise off, a single thought went through my head. Oh, no, not already. But, I managed to stay awake long enough to shower and get everything out the door to meet our cab at just before 5. The cab ride, while frightening (even I can stay in my lane reliably), was largely uneventful, and airport security went very smoothly, as did the flight. Dad and I made our way along the T to our hotel, where we went our seperate ways: Dad went off to lunch and schmooze with other notable bloggers, and Steve Himmer gave me a guided tour of Emerson, which looks like a top contender on my List O' Colleges. And now, I write to you, dear reader, from the Hotel @ MIT, which is geek haven. They even inlaid circuit boards into the dresser. I mean, come on. So that's what's happened so far. In a couple of hours Dad and I will head out to the Rock The Blogosphere party, which should prove interesting. Until then!
