For the fourth year in a row, I have been asked to speak at the Business Objects International User Conference. This year, it's being held at the Gaylord Palms resort in Florida, so I'll probably get to visit some family and friends while I'm down there. I'll be giving the same presentation I earlier gave to the Mid-South Business Objects User Group, so I don't really have a lot of preparation to do other than tweaking the presentation a little and making it fit the template for the international conference. I really enjoy giving these types of presentations, and I think I would even like to do something like that full-time if I could find such a job.
Since it's not far from my parents' house, we'll probably try to arrange for Mary and Owen to go down as well and stay with them for a few days, but I don't know how that will all work with the travel schedule and Mary being almost 8 months pregnant by then. Normally, I would fly to a buisness event like this, but I may elect to drive down with them if time permits. Flying would be more expensive because Owen will be over 2 years old and require his own ticket, and if we drive, I can get reimbursed for the mileage. I just don't know if my boss will want me to spend two days driving for a three-day conference (of course, by then my company will have been acquired and I could be working for someone entirely different).
