Arrived in Washington. Prepped for battle tomorrow.

I made it here. Despite the plane being delayed, long lines at the rental car counter, and my ever-present ability to get myself totally lost, even in the simplest of situations, I have managed to establish a base of operations. After I get vetted by the residents tonight, we'll see whether I have to keep my base mobile. Signs are encouraging, however. Tomorrow is Interview #1, which, to some degree, is the "easier" of the two in that I don't have to ahve a fully-fledged fifteen-minute extravaganza ready, just a five minute story and a three minute book-talk. Both of which I'm pretty sure I can do well.

Day after is Interview #2, where audience participation is going to have to be a very large part of making the demonstration work out for me. Otherwise, it could take a while.

Anyway, that still leaves significant amounts of time for me to Go Places, Do Things, and See People. Suggestions on things to do and/or times to meet will be welcome.

And I hope the flights home aren't delayed. Also, need to remember to buy food for the flights back.
