No GaFilk for me this year...
It occurs to me that I never posted about this here...
I've decided to forego GaFilk this year. I really wanted to go, but I would be leaving directly from Atlanta to go spend a week in San Francisco at MacWorld, so the dogs would be with a sitter for 10 days, which is expensive, stressful for the dogs (especially my old guy, Chase) and stressful for me. Plus, I'd either end up hauling a heck of a lot of luggage, or having to do laundry somewhere along the way, and I don't relish the logistics of either thing. All of that combined with either going instrumentless to GaFilk or having to entrust instruments to the airlines for way too much time (Indy to Atlanta, Atlanta to San Francisco, San Francisco to Indy by way of either Denver or Chicago) just adds up to my deciding that it would wind up being more stress and less fun than it should be.
So... no GaFilk for me this year.
