So, yea… in about 9 hours, I’ll be on a plane headed towards Austin to do my part at SXSW Interactive. If you’ve been reading me for any amount of time, you all know that I would rather peel my fingernails off and dip my fingers in salt water than get on a plane and fly anywhere.
Somehow, I manage. I think it’s the 3 Benadryl’s with a Martini chaser that gets me through.
As nervous as I am about flying, I’m excited and really looking forward to this thing. I get to buy a round of drinks for Peter, Paul, Joelle and Suzie – – I’m really looking forward to meeting all of them, as I droll over admire all of their work.
Speaking of droling – as an extra added BONUS – Wench is headed down to Austin to come party with me on Saturday night – – martini’s and karaoke for everyone! That is, if she has forgiven me for not calling her yet. I swear, I’ll call you when I get settled into my hotel tomorrow (around 2-3pm CST!)
Of course, because I have big plans this weekend for SXSW – anything and everything that could have gone wrong this week, leading up to this trip, did and has. I can’t go into specifics on it – because it’s classified information . . needless to say, I’ve had an absolute week from hell and none of it had to do even remotely with work.
So, I’m off! I think they have the entire city of Austin set up with WiFi for this conference – and I will be available via email and Yahoo IM, for those so inclined. Hosting support issues should, of course, go through our Support Center – which is fully staffed and I happen to have the next 4 days off from! (yeehaw! <--how Texan of me) - - and design inquiries and orders will be handled via email from Austin. I'm electronically connected. I'm packed. I'm psyched. Austin or BUST!
Good luck at the conference and have fun! I’ll be flying to Florida tomorrow so mebbe we can wave as our planes pass each other *chuckle*
lol – sounds like a plan! Safe flight, Bug!
Safe journey, Lisa. 🙂
Maybe this will help with your flying anxieties… :d
