trip East?

[ursula]

So, I just got an e-mail with an offer of partial funding for John Morgan's birthday conference at Columbia. This is pretty cool, because if my advisor ever finishes WRITING his paper with Morgan I get to extend it. (OK, and automate computations of topological invariants. I like topology, though. I even like programming in small doses.) But also, it is a trip to New York! I can see my sister and maybe meet her boyfriend. And lots of other East Coast people :)

[Yes, I am still playing the same game.]

i dont know if this is me, but I could see myself writing something like this :)

(its the smileys...)

[ursula]

Not you. But you're right, the smiley is a clue.

I suspect it may be me. The smiley face, the parentheses, the occasional word in caps, and the beginning 'So' (which I may have inherited from B), all seem like clues. ;)

franzeska guessed that, too. But you are more verbose ;)

[flammifera.livejournal.com]

Oh, right. I definitely am. Good point. ;) So it's still un-guessed?

(Oh, and despite being happy about your game because it meant that I would hear about your life, I completely forgot to respond to the actual content of this post. I assume you'll actually let people know if you're in NYC; I think I should be around for those dates!)

Yes, not guessed yet.

I will definitely let people know. I wonder if this is enough to force me into a cell phone . . .
