I’m stepping outside of my brain’s comfort zone and attending a pretty heavy conference today.
A “manference” really, as the core audience is made up of scientists and engineers.
I kinda feel like wearing a sign that says I’m just here to fill a chair.
While I’m clearly out of my league, so far I’ve heard a tidbit from the woman who inspired the Jodi Foster role in the movie Contact and am currently listening to the CEO from Honeywell.
The world is fortunate to have brain power from the people in this room.
Makes my day job seem pretty fluffy. Still important, but super fluffy.

Well…I HIGHLY doubt you are ‘filling a chair’. I bet you have A LOT to bring!!! You are one smart cookie.
Have a great time!

Oh man – I can assure you that I was lost for a good percentage of the day
My friend and colleague was the event planner and attendance needed a bit of a boost, so I lent my body for the day.
I did talk to the scientist who is in charge of the two rovers that have been on Mars for the last 6 years. That was pretty cool.
