I need some props for the talk, and had a few bookmarked, but... for some reason didn't order them yet. Wanted to prep my talk a bit further, to see more clearly what I need.
I had a minor heart attack today, because I was almost ready to hit the order button when I noticed the estimated shipping: "not before May 21st". That's the day I fly back! That's a a good few days too late!
BUT WHAT WILL I DO WITHOUT MY PROPS?!?!
Luckily, I phoned around in the family, and will have all the props I need in time. Will have to visit both parents before I fly off on Monday.
HAH! #RustWeek just sent me an email asking me to look over and suggest changes to the script they plan to use when announcing my talk on stage.
AWESOME!
Say hello to "many pronouns, handle it". Not exactly that text, of course, because that has no mention of the talk's topic (although iocaine is related, and will get a very brief mention), but something along those lines.
Love it.
In other news, I just delivered a practice run of my talk to the family, and they lovingly offered a straightjacket.
'tis going well.
And I didn't even use the real props, only placeholders. Doesn't make much of a difference, but... the props do play an important part, with only placeholders, some dramatic effects are less dramatic.
