This is the billboard I get to look at from my room.


HAHAHA! 

So...I get dressed this morning, thinking I look good...great...no FABOOlous and I head out to start buying the last minute things.  Well, I get a call from Shanna, "OH MY GOODNESS!  It's raining here!"  I looked out the Office Depot window and saw dry skies and tried to calm her.  "No, it's torrential over here at the hotel."  15 minutes later, it still wasn't raining, but it was muggy.  I drove to another store and while I was out there, WHOOOSH!  All this water from nowhere!  It was horrible.  Reminded me of the Great Southern California rains of '04.  The streets were actually flooded.  Yikers!

So it did the raining bit off and on for hours.  No one really digs that.  Especially vacationers in Vegas.  BUT, they don't really matter.  The locals were friggin' ecstatic.  Every store I went in, there were big smiles and ,"Thank goodness it's raining!".

Crazy.

Volunteers



The people who are here just rocked.  I walked into the room and saw all the books, bags, folders and all the little bits that were going in to the bags.  I was completely overwhelmed, but the volunteers just totally kicked ass.  I got back to the hotel around 3pm and thought that the bag stuffing would take about 8 hours.  Well, they were finished around 6 and loading the bags into the registration room.  WOW.  So now they're all in orientation and I should be down there, but I'm here. Blogging.

A billboard for Vasectomy.com? I guess what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas

As in, YOUR BALLS!

How fun -- I can see the stack of YES! Magazines there -- "5000 Years of Empire .... Ready for a Change?" Many, many thanks to you, Gina, Shanna, Lee and all the volunteers who helped with the conference bag stuffing. So sorry to miss this event. Next year? :)
