18 hour party people

My day:

Got up at 7am, nervous about speaking at Flashforward.

Spoke at 9am.  Not a lot of laughs from the crowd.  Are my jokes too nerdy?  Are they hung over? Both?  Fortunately, they seem to love my code (which isn't even really mine, just the sum of my research into other peoples' work -- fully credited of course!) when I finally get to that part.

Whisked away for a podcast at 10:30am.  Talked way too long, but hopefully said something worthwhile.

New demo reel for Metaversal completed.  Watch it now. It rocks harder than I ever imagined it could.

Stuff like the new demo reel totally re-energizes me, realizing all we've managed to do in the last 3 years, even if it's been uphill all the way, and not the party we expected.

Speaking of which?  Disney throws a pretty great party.  Bowling, free drinks, lots of food.  Tomorrow they're having a job fair, and if anyone from Disney even looks at me with interest, I may have to submit a resume.  And then convince them to open a Boston office and adopt the Metaversaliens, since I can't very well leave them behind.

On a non-Disney note, BIG. EXCITING. MEETINGS!

Can't talk about them here yet, but just you wait!

Kathleen and I have vowed to attend every 9am session of FlashForward this year; we always sleep in at least one morning.  But now it is 1:30AM and I am still up, and K hasn't even gotten home yet, so we'll see how that goes!
