5am, first morning of YAPC

Sarah Burcham, the wonderful person that organized YAPC this year, got us in contact with an employee of the University who offered to have us crash at his place. Expecting something a little more ... well ... little, we discovered that it is a *beautiful* home just a few blocks from campus. Our host is very generous, making us feel very much at home, and even made us cookies (with his daughter) with our names on them!

Well, I'm awake because I'm on Eastern time, and also because one of our fellow-lodgers is snoring resoundingly from the next room. How can someone snore that loudly and still be able to talk the next day? Wow.

Today should be a good day. Some interesting talks lined up. I'll probably wait to a slightly more decent hour before getting up and getting a shower.
