While many of our friends around the world have already begun their annual pilgrimage to California's center, some of us are doing the final loads of laundry and finishing off our workload so our bosses don't resent us for the weekend and most of next week. What better way to shake off the stresses of travelling and missed work with a party? O'Reilly will be serving Ben & Jerry's ice cream with HP Linux Lager and Perl.com Pale Ale in a comemorative Open Source mug at the Open Source Cajun Soiree, featuring your favorite cajun foods and the musical stylings of the zydeco sensation, "Crawdaddy." All from six to nine in the P.M.
If this all scares you as much as it does us, the Monterey Bay Aquarium is open until 6 p.m., and when it closes you can find a web browser and surf their E-Quarium through the wee hours.
