Going Curling

Thanks to pair's Q-Fund, I've joined the Pittsburgh Curling Club. I go to my first instructional class tomorrow.

This will be my second time curling. I went a couple years ago on a Scout trip, and had a good time. I tried to join the club last year, but because of all the media coverage from the Olympics, they had to close membership (too many people wanted to join). This year, I managed to get my application in early enough.

Work is still progressing with the Pittsburgh Perl Workshop. I visited the CMU campus today and met with the conference coordinator. We walked through the conference space and worked out several details. Several more details remain to be worked out between now and next Saturday.

Afterwards, we went to the Penn Brewery to check out a potential venue for a social event after the workshop. Looks like Oktoberfest started this weekend, and runs through next weekend also. So, that venue is probably out.
