H has organized a small conference for architecture librarians which started late yesterday afternoon. I attended all of this morning including a 'poster' session presenting one of the projects I've been involved with. Tomorrow is the presentation I've been touting around the bazaars of late. Also looking forward to seeing colleagues from TheOldPlace in action with their Second Life presentation.

One of the committee members is doing something on Twitter too which I'm looking forward to. Noticing her contribution on a programme I started 'following' her last week but didn't do anything formal like introduce myself or anything. We've never met. (What is the netiquette for that?) Of course, I'm not identifiable from my name or (non-existant) bio. Didn't plan on interacting till today but perhaps unsurprisingly in retrospect she tweeted a couple of things about the conference which I couldn't resist replying to.

Not surprised to find this morning that she had thought it a little weird and was very relieved to find I wasn't a stalker but just me.

They're all off on a coach tour of the city now while I'm trying to deal with the emails that have piled up in various absences. Getting Things Done was working but I've just not been here to get things done so am a little behind. Still, I'm confident the processes will stand me in good stead if only I could past this oppressive heat. Pain killers and Cherry Coke not yet helping.

Still planning on attempting both book group which is unfortunately this evening (Grapes of Wrath and The Great Gatsby as our glorious leader has been in Thailand for the best part of a month) and the conference dinner. Possibly optimistic to try either given how I feel...
