7:32 am<\/i>-Waiting for a flight to Atlanta. At 9, so it’s a longer wait than I really want, but I was up, so I figured it was better to go and get here. Everything went really easy-no traffic, the security wait was nothing, compared to OC. The car rental hadn’t been direct billed. OK.<\/br><\/p>\n
So, the past day-easy flight to Raleigh, got my bags (Erika was betting it would get lost), got my car, drove to Durham, took a wrong turn, but found a Trader Joe’s!, circled back, found the hotel after ANOTHER wrong turn, checked in, ate dinner, called Erika & the kids, went to sleep. Up, ate, set up net access (Linux is crunchy-you need to put in the gateway IP, so I had to go to the front desk and ask), prep. Called Emerson Waldorf School-the admissions lady was sick, but I was able to get a tour from the administrator-many pictures-it seems like a cool place. Back to room, lunch, dress, interviews all afternoon. It went pretty well-my answers all seemed pretty good, and I got along well with everyone. Back to room, changed, Starbucks, dinner, room. Wrote thank you letters. Sleep.<\/br>
11:03 am<\/i>-Sitting in Atlanta, waiting. They moved the gate to one that was a walk, and a walk. More thank you letter stuff. Gotta compose emails too.<\/br><\/p>\n
8:46 am pst<\/i>-In the air-I have 25 mins of battery. Finishing up thank you notes.<\/br><\/p>\n
