Exercise again. I figure if we can keep this up until March, inertia will carry us on after that.

CoSine was, at the end, disappointing. Not many people there, not much business in the dealer's room, not much activity in the Art Show, disappointing hotel, lackluster time. I think the most useful time I spent was a few hours spent on my Convention Assistant on Sunday, and the most useful time Tammy spent was an hour or so in a fantastic bead shop she found nearby. I don't know if we'll go back for next year, but I somehow doubt it. (I also managed to get a bit more work on it last night, to the point where I'm almost ready to get all the tests green again. Plus, I've rolled my own MockDataReader, which has helped to teach me a lot about the IDataReader interface.)

If you're reading my journal, and you're not also reading Gunnerkrigg Court, then you probably should start. Absolutely fabulous graphic storytelling with that touch of the witty and macabre that tends to delight people I know. We recommend it.

I enjoyed seeing you and Tammy there. It wasn't a real exciting con. I enjoyed seeing a few people. The pannals on Sunday were helpful for my writing. I really enjoyed the regency dancing, I hope you enjoyed that to.

Well, part of it is that I didn't want to leave the booth in the dealer's room. Not so much because Tammy couldn't handle it herself, but also because she might want to take a break, and because, well, it was a little lonely in there at times. So, I didn't attend any of the programming.

Plus, the programming seemed a bit boring from the descriptions - it didn't really grab me.

The Regency Dancing was good - I enjoyed the turn we took, although it was all mad confusion from step one. Unfortunately, Tammy's not in great shape right now, and that first dance tired her out. She's exercising with me, and I'm hoping one of our first benefits will be her getting her endurance back. Even though I'm more overweight than she is, she's unfortunately not as 'fit' as I am. :(

And it was nice to see you and Bruce - maybe next time the two of us are down in CS the four of us can get together for dinner or something more relaxing than standing in a hallway and talking. :)
