An abstract rendering of the next week of my life, courtesy of iCal and the WWDC conference schedule .ics files that Apple has provided:

Nearly all the time I've spent not blogging over the past 3 months has been leading up to this in one way or another. I'll have the honor of giving one of the Cocoa talks for the second year in a row (this time, solo -- yikes!).

The preparation has been exhausting (and, truth be told, isn't entirely over yet!), but I'm also really looking forward to all the excitement that the week has in store -- meeting developer acquaintances old and new, learning more about other neat tech. that's been in development while I've been focused in my own specialized area, and, with any luck, taking in some exciting announcements!
