Well, it's sinking in that I'm actually going to SXSW in Austin.
I'm trying to figure out what to take. It's a totally wired conference so I'm taking my Powerbook and T3 Palm. Because of security concerns (maybe working in a security group has affected my thinking) I am going to set up a VPN so that I can do things like check email without worrying about stuff being intercepted.
I have to leave a bit early (mid-afternoon Monday) but when I planned the trip I didn't know how much time I would have saved up. As it turns out, I have a lot so I could probably have stayed another day or two.
At least I get to visit family in Austin.
The big worry for me will be pollen. Austin is the pollen capital of the 'States and I suffer worst than most. Thank god for Allegra.
