Off to SVP

Well, once again SVP time is here. Tomorrow morning, bright and early, I hop on a plane, then a nother plane and eventually get to Denver, Colorado. This year is a bit different. I have a real purpose for being there. No, I'm not presenting. I'm schmoozing. This year I have to convince a prof through charm and wit that they can't live without me as a grad student. I even got a haircut for the occasion.
