Suddenly, Next Summer

I was just invited to give a talk on classical Euclidean geometry at the MAA meeting in Madison next year. (This is a little exciting; I've never been invited to talk before!) I've thought of a good topic, so I'm going to accept.

The timing is interesting. The meeting is July 31 - August 2, and Denvention begins on August 6. So, I could fly up to Madison for the meeting (and maybe sneak in a MiniCon?), then fly to San Diego for a few days with the family before going on to the convention. That would be a nice little vacation.

Of course, everything is contingent on Murphy's situation, but I'm going to be optimistic about that.

Well, I did take two years of Latin in college....

I'd offer to host a gathering, but I'm a half-hour out of Madison.

I'll volunteer to organize a list-dinner and make reservations and stuff, if you like.

Though we should probably hold off until we know what hotel you'll be staying in.

Well, that's just nifty. Congratulations.

Boosting the good thoughts stream Murphy's way.
