The days are counting down till I leave for IL2006! I’m working to get everything finalized (hence the lack of posting). The biggest difficulty with a trip like this isn’t speaking in front of a crowd, or even fear of flying–it’s paralysis at being unable to decide which presentations to go to! I’m interested in ALL the topics, so I hate that I have to pick from the selection! But since I have to pick, a preliminary schedule is available on my page at the IL2006 wiki.
I’m reading the IL2006 wiki to get familiar with Monterey, and finding where I need to post my blog entries for my review. I’m kind of intimidated/excited that so many techie librarians are going to be there. I don’t want to seem like some fanboy doe-eyed front-row librarian geek, but somehow in my heart of hearts, I know that’s what I am, and will be.
- Wrapping up things at home:
- I’ve cancelled swing dance class for next Wednesday (and realized that the class wasn’t liking Lindy Hop, so we’re returning to East Coast after I get back from the conference).
- Things at work are covered. I even have someone to water my dinosaur plant!
- Must clean the house so that I don’t come back to insanity.
- I’m taking along massive amounts of reading that I need to get done.
- I am going to carve pumpkins for the Reference Desk upon my return…
