Aside from the panels and other things mentioned above, Saturday night for me was pretty quiet at the conference. I skipped the banquet, though I did wind up scarfing a chocolate-covered strawberry off one of the tables when all the fun was over and done. Mostly, Jaime and I hung out in the food nook and chatted with folks, and in general had a lovely conclusion to the day.

More to come on the fourth and final post!
