A High

The alarm went off at 6AM. Ang would not get up. I turned on lights. I pulled the covers off of her. When she did get up we found several important sentences to be missing from her presentation. Computer problems kept me from getting my copy out of my email inbox so we went downstairs to "speaker's room" and I retyped the whole thing. I did this with Ang hovering around, firing off questions, and fretting openly. At one point someone associated with the conference came in to open their wireless connection. He seemed annoyed to see us there in his way. Grumpy just had to wait until we got the thing saved, emailed, and printed in a really large font for her to read from. I refer you to my sister's website where I hope you will find out what it was like to get up in front of a room full of people and deliver her talk. All I can say is she was a really big hit. People cried. People came up to her all day and thanked her for her courage. I just gloated. In the afternoon we sneaked away and had naps. We were both exhausted and frazzled. In the evening a sibling squabble broke out. That story next. Check back for the photo I'll be adding as soon as I'm back in the 'Burgh.
