[AGU] Step 1: Get There

The flight was uneventful and mostly comfortable. I am now sitting in the Moscone Center South building, realizing that I didn't end up in any good nap positions from Dulles to SFO but I'll work all that out as I walk around the city. I am not getting any grandiose moving plans, but I sure do love coming back to this city: the little things like riding the MUNI through the Mission made me feel right at home-away-from-home again.

Manuel picked me up from the airport and drove me to his apartment before he went to work. His girlfriend Denise and I ordered a big ol' pizza and played with their puppy Maggie (a partial terrier to bring a near of nostalgia to your eye) before Sean came over. Sean and I had a few beers, watched television and schemed plans for the week (though I'm sure we'll play most of it by ear anyway).

Like I said, I'm sitting in the Moscone Center. My plan for today and every day is to geek out with lectures in the morning and either lectures or posters in the afternoon, depending upon what interests me. On that note, the next session is about to start to I will sign off for now.
