A quick summary of the last month:

Dec. 6, [livejournal.com profile] miss_chance's birthday.
Dec. 8, last day at Permabit.
Dec. 10, ICA opening.
Dec. 17, fly to Puerto Rico.
Dec. 21, [livejournal.com profile] roozle's birthday.
Dec. 21, [livejournal.com profile] miss_chance's and my anniversary.
Dec. 24, home from Puerto Rico.
Dec. 25, Christmas, and two parties.
Dec. 28, drive to New Haven for nephew Charlie's birthday.
Dec. 31, more do-not-miss parties than I can actually get to.
Jan. 1, also more do-not-miss parties than I can actually get to.
Jan. 2, first day at new job at ITA Software.
Jan. 3, Tolkein's birthday.
Jan. 4, fancy dinner with some close friends.
Jan. 5, drive to New York.
Jan. 6, over the top bat mitzvah of my youngest cousin.
Jan. 7, another do-not-miss party.
Jan. 9, final deadline with the Arisia hotel
Jan. 10, Arisia runtime begins
Jan. 12, first actual official day of Arisia

Happily, my biggest real responsibility at ITA so far has been to organize ITA's presence at Arisia. We will be sponsoring the film program, as a tie-in to the movie nights that happen here twice a week. We'll have some HR folks wandering around the con. And we will be throwing a party on Saturday night after the Masquerade. We have about a dozen people coming down, from all across the company, a pretty good food budget, and a bunch of giveaways (nice ones, like shirts and hats and USB thumbdrives) that we'll be giving out to people who come talk to us. We're going to experiment a little with using video projection in a party context in a way that might lead to a very interesting immersive party concept for 2008. It looks like it's going to be a good time.

Dear [livejournal.com profile] palmwiz,
You, sir, are a very very sneaky bastard.

Sincerely,

Not sneaky enough, apparently.

*laugh*
I am amazed and amused that you managed to get them to pay you to do Arisia stuff.

Oh, huh. Maybe that's why I feel wiped.

That would explain it. I had to take a nap after reading this! :)

Looks like there won't really be any of the discounted memberships. But I will get the list of Steve Lewis' comps (Joel told him he could have ten) as soon as I can.

If ITA is still looking, they might try Boskone.
