Still jetlagging; Game development camp updates

I admit the jetlag is not as bad as when I come from the US.  It's just inconvenient.  It took me until about 1 am to sleep last night.  I know this is normal for some people, but it's not for me.  I sleep early and get up early, largely out of habit but partly because my classes begin at 7:30 am (or I probably get the 7:30 classes because I'm up early...).

Anyway, I hope things normalize by today.

We have an overflow of applicants for the game development camps.  We had originally set the cap at 20, both for primary school (to use Scratch) and middle school (to use Neverwinter Nights).  We've agreed to accept up to 25 for Scratch (thank you, Alfred!).  For NWN, we're restricted by our licenses--we only have 20 copies of NWN (19 belong to the dept, one belongs to Aids--thank you!), so the only way to get past the ceiling is to find more copies.

I've had funny calls trying to armwrestle me into accepting more people.  Everything from, "Please, my son is so disappointed!" to "Tell her I'm the one who helped her with..."  It's nice when a product is so in demand. 

Anyway, we're trying to find a way to expand the class without forcing people to share copies.

Jet lag can really take a while to get over. It's the part of travel I dislike the most.

I hope the game camp goes well for you. I'll be very interested to hear how things go as they go along.
