Admittedly, the predicted high of 93F isn't that hot, especially when in the last week it's been nearly 100F in London and 103F in Tulsa. But in London, 100F is exceedingly rare, and in Tulsa, they have this thing called air conditioning.
Oh, blessed A/C. Thank you, Willis Haviland Carrier, for making America livable in the summer. Why do I think that sounds like a Sufjan Stevens song title?
Up in Vancouver, the new Dayment, Ever Charis, debuted. More cute baby girls. Seems like everyone we know has a girl.
Next week, Susan is off to her writer's convention, and I get six days with a toddler. Pray for me. I'm actually considering a drive up to Vancouver to drop off baby clothes for Babymented. Of course, I need to find Annabel's birth certificate in order to do that. Where is it?
I talked work into paying for An Event Apart. It's difficult to pry money out of them nowadays, but somehow this got approved. And I did lean on them a bit, saying that if they want me to still be the one-man webmaster band around here that I need to keep my skills up. I mean, these are the gods of CSS having a one-day conference. It's the sort of place that Ben would love to shoot up.
And that's about it. Anyone who wants to hang out next week with a 2-year-old, you know where I am.

Ooooh, AEA. Now it's my turn to be jealous. ;) I expect your CSS skillz to be ninja-quality soon.
Seriously, though, enjoy it!

I probably should have gone to WebVisions myself, but I don't know anyone in PDX whose house I could crash at. AEA is (theoretically) two buses from the house.

I'm expecting lunch to be wrapped in 45 layers of DIV paper and the coffee to come quadruple cupped with 89 lids. Oh yah - and nothing will be vertically aligned, anywhere.
Will you do a write up on techniques to de hack our crap to work with cursed IE7? :)
