I never would have thought that I'd be hearing advice on the tranquility of anything from Uncle Warren Ellis, but there you go.

Me, I enjoy traveling as well, except for the fact that I still feel like I'm paying penance for making a friend's cousin miss her flight when I was a freshman in college because I'd never flown before, and when she told me the time of her flight we simply calculated that that was the time when she'd have to be at the airport. It's moments of wanton stupidity like that which keep me up at night, even ten years later. Oy. (Devin, if you're reading this, please tell Portia that I'm still sorry.)

It's a good thing that I like traveling so much, because I'm going to be doing a lot of it in upcoming months. First Laura and I will be heading to Greece for the International Toy Researchers Association conference in early July. After that I'll be flying to Los Angeles for a workshop on transmedia at the SIGGRAPH Sandbox Conference in August, and then down to Texas to co-host a workshop on video game adaptations at the Austin Game Developers Conference in September. Woof. Talk about your frequent flier miles!
