I'm heading out to O'Hare to catch a plane to Washington, DC for a few days. I'm sure the conference will be great, and that I'll come back with all kinds of useful information to pass on to the people who need it. Mostly, however, I'm looking forward to a chance to get away from the office and relax a little bit. I'm hoping to do quite a bit of writing and polishing on my exam paper draft: I'd like nothing better than to be able to hand it in when I get back, though I'm not committing to that. I'm also looking forward to visiting some of my favorite DC haunts: the National Archives, the World War II memorial, and the like. I've got a nice new camera and I'm eager to see what it can do for me in such great public spaces. Not that I have anything against my trusty little Sony, but it definitely had its limitations. I'll be back home, Deo volente, on Wednesday.
