SxSW marches on

.. sometimes without me. After a road trip, a day at work and a more than full Saturday helping out around the convention center, Sunday was a day of respite for me at home. I missed a few panels, and the 'awards' show, but a pile of laundry and piles of dishes from before I got home convinced me that the time was best spent at home.  That and getting a jump on the weeds in the yard after this week's rain.

In addition to the menial tasks, got to sort through about 35 pounds worth of crap/loot from the conference. Some items were real winners - some cheap sunglasses, gum, smokes, a dvd with adobe software on it, a micro-sd card with some music on it, and a really cool camera bag (the red hoo-jah from http://www.crumplerbags.com ) that Chaz promptly snagged. Some items, not so much.. I'm not a sticker guy, so those went in the recycles. Also trashed: tons of promo magazines, generic postcards, a 'neck-sock' for your phone. The canvas bags themselves were pretty cool as well.

Today I'll see what if anything they need. With the sun out and blue skies, it's gonna be a nice day despite some bleery-eyed people around me.
