Bother. It was too good to be true. I am still a slave to my Australian body clock. I managed a measly two hours of sleep last night, and then listened to the birds again until we left to attend our last day of the conference.
The weather today was gorgeous. I mean sen-sat-ion-al! Twenty two or twenty three degrees with bright sunshine and a crisp warm tang in the air that permeated everything we saw. Except in the conference rooms in the Hyatt for Pycon, though. I got cold pretty - fast.
The talks were really good today in the main. A nice way to finish. A developer at Threadless talked about their company, and they are (mostly) nice, dedicated, hard working and not full of themselves. Nice.
The same goes for Disqus, whom I'd never heard of, but were so down to earth and nice for a bunch of people who have made it really big.
I became so tired towards the end of the day I wasn't sure I'd make it without being asleep or dead or both. I did, and finished with a talk on Iron Python (python running on windows in a .NET library aware environment) and had several Microsoft people attend. It was good.
I went off to the gym then, and found it very difficult considering I wanted to snore rather than strain.
We could go and see a band tonight, but honestly, I'm pretty well spent right now, and am considering cuddling up to a pillow for about the time it took us to evolve from gills to lungs (a long time (tm)). The silly reference is kind of relevant because we're talking about genetic algorithms, and evolving solutions for various problems. Most of which don't actually need solving :).
Lots to do tomorrow. We're booked into see a college baseball game, and want to go to the botanical gardens, and need to find a laundromat. We'll see what else we can fit in, but those are definites. Oh, I want to go to an American Target, too.
Anyway, resting time calls, eyes are heavy.
