Masters’ exams are the weekend of May 23rd, I’ve been accepted to a conference in North Carolina (that I would really love to go to) the next weekend, and the weekend after that is the Echo conference, which I am co-organizing.
The question at hand is: Do I go to the North Carolina conference in the manner of a work-driven madwoman? Or do I decline the invite and spend that weekend in bed?
personally, i think you should go to NC with Lindsay and me, b/c we both got in and you can stay at my parents’ house for FREE!
Go if you think you can take off June.
I think you should go to the conference, because it’s a chance to go and see North Carolina (and believe it or not, I will be as jealous of you over that as I was over Hawaii, which was pretty jealous).
Deb thinks you should go to the conference because by that point your brain is going to be completely fried anyway whether you spend the weekend in bed or at a conference, so why not enjoy the fried-ness with other people instead of just by yourself?
yes, North Carolina is gorgeous – and I’d love to share my home state with you!
