congratulations to everyone who has helped make kde the project and software it is!
when i got back home from dublin there was a package waiting for me. in it was a shirt that was intended to have arrived pre-dublin but which didn't quite make it. here it is:
would've been awesome to have worn that to the first day of akademy. oh well. and who, you ask, is to blame/praise for this concoction of evilitude? none other than our own wade olsen. (thanks wade =)
oh, and if you've ever wondered what i look like in the morning, here it is in all its horror from the last morning in dublin. well, the last morning i actually slept. there was one more morning but.. yeah.. not much sleep gotten that night. late night out with everyone saying goodbye only to return to discover the hostel had kicked our stuff out of the room a day early. this led to sebas and i searching the hostel for our luggage and goods (i'm still missing one or two inconsequential items). after that early morning ordeal sebas got some sleep in another bed while i just got a shower (aaah... hour long hot showers can cure almost anything) before popping off to the airport sometime before 05:00.
well, how showers don't quite cure anything. they make me feel better, but i'm trying to shake this very annoying and crappy flu i brought home with me. bah!
t. leaves for japan early friday morning and peyton has half days of school this week (parent teacher interviews). so i'm trying to nurse myself back to health whilst keeping up with the daily tasks. wish me luck =)

LOL!

That's pretty bad. Almost as bad as the last night of Ohio Linux Fest last year.. no sleep.. drive to get your stuff and pass out in my car in the parking lot near the airport.
Wished I could have made it to Dublin this year, but bought a house and had to move. Maybe next year!
I was hoping you were going to post links to the photos taken of you when you fell asleep on the chairs outside the lecture theatres and they put silly signposts on you, but maybe no one told you about those yet?
Wait - you managed to get some hot water from the showers?!
@alan: yeah, i just don't have any of those pics yet. as soon as i do, i'll post them. i have no shame. ;)
@robert: yep. there was a temperature gauge in the middle of the water power control. it was not the easiest system to use and if lots of other people were showering the heat would ebb and flow, but yeah... the water was hot enough to produce prodigious amounts of healing steam. =)
being a shower fiend and travelling a fair amount has given me a (sadly) fairly extensive know-how of how to eek out the desired effect from all sorts of shower arrangements.
