West Coast Goings On

A textbook publisher has offerred to fly me out to San Diego (for free!) to attend a "workshop" (read: extended sales presentation) about materials that might be applicable to one of our highest enrollment courses!

I'm tempted, but I probably won't go. As much as I love San Diego, I really hate to travel. And if I couldn't get my act together enough to go to this conference, then I can't imagine that I'll get around to rearranging my life for the sake of learning about pre-packaged materials for low-level undergraduates.

Besides, a mere weekend in San Diego is insufficient for fulfilling the longing for all the things that I miss about the place.
