Last night, whilst playing a little World of Warcraft, I heard the familiar “new mail” noise that my Gmail Notifier makes. Expecting either spam or the latest issue of Diesel Sweeties, I waited until I had a moment before bothering to check what it was. Imagine my surprise when I saw an email with the subject line you see above. My first thought: “Holy crap, I won something! This almost never happens!” Second thought? “Guess who’s going to San Franscisco? This guy right here!”
So, yeah, it looks like I’ll be making a trip to San Franscisco this August for the WWDC. I am SO excited. I’ve got lots of money issues to sort out, and I’m not sure how much the scholarship covers (main question: does it include accomodations?), but I am really excited. If there’s anyone out there who knows anything about San Franscisco, email me so I’m not completely clueless.
I think it’s pretty funny that I’ve gone from not having a Mac to winning a trip to the Worldwide Developers Conference in less than two months. It’s kind of funny, really.
Anyway, back to work I go. Until we meet again.

I would like to add that it is close to Reno…where I will be in 5 weeks and the flying to get there is um…LONG….Like 12 hours of travel with lay overs etc.
