Who the heck do I think I am?

etakyma and I are holding a Registration pre-stuffing party in advance of Ascendio!

Our location has changed since the one we held for Infinitus but it's still accessible by T:

Candlewood Suites
130 Middlesex Turnpike
Burlington, MA 01803

By T: Take the 350 Bus from Alewife Station to the Burlington Mall Road and Meadow Road stop.


June 30 and July 1 (Saturday and Sunday).

We will also let people know the room number via Facebook and Twitter once we have checked in.

Even if (or especially if!) you can't come to Ascendio, but you're in the Boston area, c'mon down and say hello! We miss you!

Had a lovely lunch with hp_boston crew and got home (through intermittent storms) to discover the power had gone out long enough to lose the VCR clock. Reset and came out to sitting room. Popped in my Netflick for background and power went out again. Came back on almost immediately, but just as I got the DVD started again, power went out again.

Two and a half hours later, still no power. Nstar's voicemail as of 6:00 pm says they are aware of outages basically all over the fucking area (seriously), and have no estimated time of restoration.

Fuck. It's hot. I have my camping lantern, though, so at least there's light.

Unfortunately, my computer has shut itself down. Will need to power phone and sidekick soon, maybe okay until tomorrow.

Grr. Want my civilization, dammit!
