toooo late...

I wanted to blog last monday - but just didn't get too it. Bloody busy at work. And NOW is the only time I have, as later today I work, then it's queens night in NL, and then queens day, and then it's weekend again and I'd be a week late....

Anyway, I just wanted to write a bit about last sunday - which was a brilliant day. I went to the Elf Fantasy Fair in Kasteel de Haar, a beautiful medieval castle close to Utrecht.

And here I'll include a few pics (more on Picassa) to give a taste of what THAT was like ;-)

I'm sure you recognize them...

This dude just went over the top - he looked like he walked just out of the movie...

And this lady also must've spend quite some time on dressing up.

I really love this: Dark Minion with a pizza slice & soda...

There also were batman's, aliens & pirates but I just HAVE to share this one as final pic...

I've got more images on my Picassa account:

Elf Fantasy Fair 2010

I case you wonder what I was wearing: nothing special. Last year, I went there dressed up as a monk, but my suit was so embarassingly simple compared to many others I just didn't bother this time. Maybe next year :D

Diversity Grant

In the spirit of our recent celebration of Ada Lovelace day, Google and the NLUUG announce the Google Diversity Travel and Conference Grant. Female system administrators who would like to participate in the NLUUG System Administration spring conference should apply!

The NLUUG usually sets up very high quality conferences, so if you would like to learn more about the profession of system administration, it's certainly worth checking out~ even if you're male ;-)
