Hit my goal of a sub-25 minute 5k. Finished it in about 23 minutes. Overall did 3.25 miles at a 7:55 clip. Sometimes impending rain is the best motivation to keep running.

Took a bit of a break this afternoon and watched Linotype: The Film. Really great documentary about what was, for many years, revolutionary publishing technology. It’s a little crazy to realize that the gap between idea and mass publication used to literally require liquid metal poured one line at a time.

Earlier today I started Mr. Penumbra’s 24-Hour Bookstore. I’m already half-way through reading it. A fantastic read with the right mix of tech, books, and intrigue.

Had a great day at UserConf and am taking a late-night flight back to Portland. Long two days but so worth it.

Three talks in to UserConf and I am super impressed. One of the better conferences I’ve been to in a long while.

14-hour workday and takeout Thai food for dinner. Now I feel like a true 20-something.

Having a mass spectrometry conference share a floor with the Automattic company meetup rooms provides for some pretty funny juxtapositions. They’re in suits. We’re in t-shirts.

Getting some light work done before flying up to Spokane for this weekend. Soundtrack for the morning has been Sonny Clark. Damn I love working from home. 🙂
