I like living someplace where I can call the doc when I wake up and have an appointment scheduled for after lunch. The doc said my lungs sounded weird so he gave me some antibiotics which seemed to work. I spent some days resting and a weekend boyfriending and then I went to Toronto for the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.accessola.com\/superconference2009\/\">OLA Superconference<\/a> on Wednesday and got back last night. I had incredible travel karma considering that I flew out of Burlingotn on a day when most flights were cancelled and Vermont got 18 inches of snow. I gave <a href=\"http:\/\/www.librarian.net\/stax\/2668\/what-a-super-conference\/\">a talk about the digital divide<\/a> and it went well. I saw a lot of librarians that I know and like from around and did some quality conferencing and couch surfing and meetupping. I also ate enough food to keep me nutrified for another few weeks, so it&#8217;s back into the pool tomorrow. I had the chili poutine in this photo, David had the bacon poutine, John had the pulled pork poutine. I like <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Poutine\">poutine<\/a>, squeaky cheese and all.<\/p>\n<p>As of now my roof at home appears watertight so I&#8217;ve moved out of the living room bed and back into my room. I have developed an attachment to sleeping in the living room &#8212; when I lived in the Odd Fellows Hall in Seattle it was my favorite place to sleep &#8212; so if you come to visit perhaps I can put you in the silver bed and I&#8217;ll sleep out here.<\/p>\n<p>My current projects involve getting a mix CD out the door, trying to learn to use a drain snake, helping my sister move (happy story that, bug her for it if you don&#8217;t know it) and getting ready for a quick trip to San Francisco for a steering committee meeting later this month. I have a small flurry of tax forms to dig through real soon now (&#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=CWtoBBppexA\">a success snowstorm<\/a>&#8221; as Richard Brautigan would say) I think 2008 may have been my most lucrative year ever which is a good news\/bad news situation if I&#8217;ve ever heard one.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<a href=\"https:\/\/www.jessamyn.com\/journal\/2009\/02\/better\" rel=\"bookmark\" title=\"Permalink to better!\"><p>So hey, I went to the doctor.
