Can you feel the momentum that is Ft Lauderdale

Hi all,

I'd like to start this off by writing that I have been on a desert island for the last two months on a meditation course for mid life crisis for balding IT men.

But that wouldn't be true...

or perhaps that I have been on a second honeymoon with my wife and was far too tired to blog :-). But that wouldn't be true........either.

I have however, been very busy at work and the soccer season has started here in NZ so I am playing the beautiful game once more, although i'd preferyou didn't ask how we are doing.

But, even these distractions aren't the reason for my lack of postings in the last 8 weeks.

The true reason is that I have moved my laptop to the study and my 6 year old daughter has discovered the magical world of computing and dominates the machine. I do wonder where she gets it from but I think a new computer is on my shopping list in the next month or two.

How many computers are required in a family home in this day and age? You tube and Britains got talent in particular seem to dominate most of the 15.4' laptop screens in this household.

Anyhow, today is a short post to say that I have a schedule for my weekly posts mapped out and will be adding some highly anticipated 2e tips and tricks over the coming weeks.

Back to this post though.....

The title (of course) is related to the upcoming CA Plex and CA 2E user conference in the USA in September. Take a look at this link www.plex2e.com for more details. I have booked flights, arranged time from work and reserved the hotel room. I have even told the trouble and strife (wife) before I booked this as well. 4 brownie points for me. Shame I am still in arrears on this front.

All I have to do now is to submit my brief for a presentation and............oh yeah!!!!....... get working on it.

This is the highlight of my working year when I get a chance to attend these events, learn great stuff about the products that I use and preach about, socialise with friends and colleagues in the industry both new and old and get to attend a Plex in the city event.

I look forward to meeting many of you over the week that I am there.

Until then take care. Only another 115 days to go. I'm counting them down already.

Thanks for reading.
Lee.
