The snow messed up my travel plans so badly that I ended up canceling my trip to #EPIDEMICS10. Instead of enjoying time with friends and sunshine in San Diego, this is where I'll be. 😫

Meanwhile in South Bend, Indiana… Looking forward to getting out of this mess and joining you at #EPIDEMICS10 soon!
