We had our annual end-of-summer party at work today, complete with bands {Haim and Poolside}, beer, barbecue, and a photo booth. Elke and I got to goof off for a few hours.
It was fun.

Ah, N’awlins. What a lovely, crazy town. It was over-run by sailors of various nationalities, here to celebrate the 200th anniversary of the War of 1812.
The conference was great, as usual. I taught a breakout session, which was very well received.
The conference organizers are known for staging an over-the-top event for the final night’s party. Here’s what we did last year.
This year, a train of antique Mardi Gras floats paraded us through town to a private party at the House of Blues. We even had three marching bands and a drill team.

We tossed beads to the cheering crowds …

… before arriving at the Voodoo Garden …

… then getting down on the dance floor.

On departing, I was struck by these words. See good. Say good. I like it. Could be my new mantra :-)

3: I really like my job. I work for a cool company; my workmates are incredibly supportive; we produce interesting and effective stuff. Though I must admit that I didn’t spend the last few days champing at the bit to be back at my desk.
