Until tomorrow, I'll just keep movin' on

No baby today, although Lynn and I both had a bit of insomnia last night.

Note to sleep-coordinating self: Not being able to sleep from 4:00 - 6:00, but being able to sleep just fine from 6:00-8:20, is not good for keeping one's job where one has the luxury of having somewhat flexible hours.

On the bright side, I used the time to start thinking up some topics for conference sessions or community courses that I could offer in the future. And I actually wrote down some of the ideas, so they won't just be whiffs of fantasy that disappear with the morning sun. Once upon a time, I thought that I really enjoyed the travel part of speaking at conferences. Now that I've been away from the circuit since last October, I find that I really enjoy speaking in public. So if I just end up giving some talks in Sudbury and Toronto, that's cool with me... and easier to keep baby close by, too.

Which reminds me, baby... any time now, okay? I promise, your home is very comfortable, your parents aren't too scary, and you have lots of family and friends who are looking forward to meeting you :-)
