Memorable Moments/Randomeness From Day One
Friday January 18, 2008
Woohoo!
Day one from the KDE Launch Event at Mountain View, CA, and I’m tired, stoked, tired, excited, and… tired. Memorable spots include:
- Waking up at 3:00 a.m., EST, flying all day, getting stuck in Silicon Valley traffic for 2 hours, etc.
- Visiting a beautiful, big mall in Santa Clara. My eldest would LOVE this!
- Walking into an actual Swatch store and buying a new, nifty, unique watch. (I used to wear no watch unless it was a Swatch but haven’t had one in a few years. Love them!)
- Finding the new version of my old Nike Prestos and buying a pair!
- Finally getting to meet and talk to Adriaan, after having worked with him for 4+ years.
- Drinking a sip (a really wee sip) of Adriaan’s scotch (I think).
- Eating peanut butter cookies that Adriaan made for us all, and drinking milk with my fellow KDE brethren, late into the night.
- Getting my KDE business cards (2 boxes, mind you!!) (thanks again, Thiago!!!) =:)
Looking forward to more fun at Days 2 and 3 at the KDE4 Launch Event.
Special thanks to Jerry Gartner for the pics, since I sucked too much to actually take any thus far. =:/
