The going away party yesterday evening was a great time. I got to see many friends for what will likely be the last time for a few years, and it seemed like everyone was enjoying themselves. I’ll eventually post some photos after I get done resurrecting them from the shadows. I left the flash off because I hate blasting an entire bar with bright light, but some of the pictures are really dark. I’m sure Photoshop can help me find the people in there. Thank You again to everyone who stopped by.

I did a really dumb thing last night. By the time we all called it quits for the night, I was in no condition to drive so Cam and Bronwin brought me back to the hotel which was great. At a painful 6am I was thinking a little about my car and how it was faring behind the shady hotel next to Pi, and it dawned on me that what was in the car was far more important. I had left my work laptop, personal laptop, car title and passport in the trunk. Amplifying the panic was the realization that my personal laptop was completely unsecured and probably had open the program I use to store all of my 20,000 passwords for online accounts. Great possibilities here for someone! Instead of nursing my head until 11am as planned I was in a cab at 6:30am to reclaim my car.

Everything is present and accounted for. Crisis averted. The one upside of this little incident was the discovery that adrenaline and 10F air bright and early work wonders on a hangover.
