Minnesota!

It’s been a while since I’ve made a post (sorry!).  However, I have plans to write a few entries while I am away from home.

I’m currently sitting at gate G21 at the Minnesota international airport in St. Paul.  “Why?” you ask… well, I suppose that’s a two part answer.  I am writing in an airport because I am a very bored geek..  I am writing in St. Paul because I was invited to give a lecture at the University of Minnesota.

The lecture was last night went really well and the group was really friendly!  I had a great time swapping stories with them at “fridays” (TGIF)!

Today, I fly to Chicago where I’ll meet Nick (friend of like 25 years) and then we’re off to his home in Bloomington, Il—Funny, because I was just staying in Bloomington, MN!

It is really hard being away from my family and I miss them so much! (sorry for txt/calling you so much, family—I just miss you guys!!!!).

Looks like we’re boarding, so I gotta go!  I’ll try to write more tomorrow!
