# Obligatory Existence Ping

Yes, I am still here. I have been involved with the kids and family this weekend, so posting was light.
I am travelling to the Bay Area on Wednesday and Thursday of next week, and have some time on Thursday night, if any fellow bloggers want to grab a brew somewhere on the peninsula (I am staying in the San Mateo/Burlingame area).
