The ITASA conference organizers had mentioned that two performers were on our same flight out of LAX, so we met up with Jason and Ryan for drinks on Thursday night. After bonding over unacceptable luggage loss (shame on you, American Airlines) in rather cozy living quarters, I basically assaulted them into involuntary friendship these past two days.

We finally got to see them perform last night, and they totally have that soulful singer-guitarist thing going on. I’m an official fangirl. (One by one, ladies!)

We are in fact rocking the fob signs in the least ironic manner possible.

Annie and I during our workshop at MIT this morning. Look at us on our way to illustrious public speaking careers!

It went well. (Unless you were there and you thought otherwise, in which case you are cordially invited to shame me in the comments.)
