Alex and I are taking a little road trip to Springfield, IL this weekend. Saturday is when Barack Obama is announcing whether he's running for President...we decided we wanted to go.
We were procrastinating on actually deciding if we wanted to go this weekend but we finally decided for sure yesterday. We'll stay at a hotel for one night on Friday (they were filling up as I was making my reservation this morning!). The press conference is at 10:00 am, and if there's time we'll probably try to go to the Abraham Lincoln museum again while we're there (I love that place!) Although I'm sure there's other things to do in Springfield that I'm just not aware of...
Then we'll probably stay with Alex's parents in Bloomington on Saturday and head home on Sunday. I have a crazy amount of work to do too so we'll see how this works out. I'm leading class discussion on DRM in two weeks for my digital copyright class and I need to come up with about 6 or so articles for the class to read. Since I may be without sufficient access to the internet while I'm gone I might have to look for those this evening. This evening we also need to pack. Usually we do this at the very last minute but I work until 5:00 tomorrow so that means we won't be heading out until after then...that means we won't even be in Springfield until midnight or later. I also want to clear the pictures off my camera before I leave...I've been taking a picture a day but I haven't been posting them so I have some work to do with those. I need to have plenty of space on the camera for the pictures from this weekend though :)
