I love that we're all spread across the planet--but at least some of you are in my general part of the world? I think? (Minneapolis)

If that's you, come to Wordplay on Saturday! I'll be on a panel about bodies at 10:30am, talking to Said Shaiye, and moderated by Kate Vogl. I know it will be good. And then I'm going to stick around to watch some truly fabulous later events.
