Leaving on a jet plane - again
Not as horrible as last month (5 day trip to two cities in Germany on business, giving presentations to our clients with 3 of my partners - grueling - followed by 10 days in VA, which was working; followed by 5 days in Vegas with my husband, which was exhausting but fun), but busy in its own way. Headed back to VA tomorrow AM.
First up - 4 days of one of the geekfests I enjoy going to - the Biotechnology Industry Organization's annual convention - about 15,000 scientists, support people, CEOs, biotech patent attorneys (like me!), investors, and biotech equipment manufacturers, scientific publishers, etc. etc. - all coming together to try to impress each other. Lots of walking, talking and SITTING in crappy convention chairs (my aching butt-bones!) trying to learn something, or find friends/colleagues/potential clients to talk to - and eat with.
Then a day of work at my firm's office - gotta get in a few billables.
And THEN! Three days with TheGoodKel and her sister at the beach for the 4th of July weekend!! Party time!
And then, back to NoVA for another two half-days of work and finally on the plane to come home on the 6th.
All of which is to say that I may be unavailable for the next couple of weeks - so don't tell people to ask me a question - tell them to use the "search function!" (yes, that was a joke - actually, it IS a joke)

Good Morning. Sounds exhausting and fun.
Michelle and Don will be in NOVA on the 5th for Dr Elariny's support group. The MADS will meet at the same restaurant we did last time you were here before the meeting. If you can work it into your schedule, we would love to have you join us.
