Dude, Cindy Selfe totally logged in on my laptop to check her Google Calendar. (For those of you not in the know, Cindy is to computer and writing scholarship what Judi Dench is to film and stage.) Eep!
Cindy Selfe and Gail Hawisher came to my apartment to talk about computers and writing with people from my uni. CINDY AND GAIL! AT MY APARTMENT! (See previous metaphor; Gail and Cindy are like the power platonic couple of computers and writing.)
The theme of this conference is “making waves” (our panel’s presentation is titled “Making .WAVs” and you can thank yours truly for that little play on words), and after two days of presentations, I swear if I hear one more effing thing about waves, someone’s going overboard.
Tomorrow is my presentation. I’m either going to (1) die, (2) pass out, (3) burst into tears, or (4) a combination of all three. But it’ll all be over soon….
