A practice I've run into recently that I'm not fond of is confirming purchase of tickets to a show but not actually emailing you the tickets until maybe a couple of days prior. I can imagine *some* logic but I don't love having those kinds of loose ends when traveling.

Putting together first conference presentation in a while. Doesn't help that my archives are sort of a mess as I had to export my RH stuff at one point but haven't really figured out how to best use.
