Yes, OOF.
As in Out Of my Freaking mind. It’s been an exhausting week. But I sent Penny’s edits to her Samhain editor yesterday, all my bags are packed, and I’m ready to go!
I’m winging my way to the RWA National Conference in New York City tomorrow. I haven’t attended Conference since San Francisco in 2008, so I’m really looking forward to it. I’d planned on blogging during the conference, but I understand Wi-Fi is incredibly expensive at the Conference hotel, even in the common areas. It’s twice as expensive in the hotel rooms. So I might blog two or three times during the week, but that’s probably it.
This is one of those times when someone like me, who has a cell phone for “emergencies” but rarely uses it, understands the appeal of crackberries. Unfortunately, I can’t justify the expense when I startle whenever the phone in my purse rings. Because that’s where it lives. In my purse. So if it rings when I’m at home, I barely ever hear it. That’s how rarely I think to use it.
Those of you who are also winging your way to New York in the next few days, I can’t wait to see you! Those of you who are staying home this year, I’ll catch you on the flipside!
Have a GREAT time!
I’m so in the mood for another conference, I’m practically booking Anaheim already. Enjoy!
Thanks, Alexa and Avery. I wasn’t planning on Anaheim, Avery, but it’s “closest” to me, so we’ll see. It depends on what else is happening next summer. I’m not sure I can resist a visit to DisneyLand.
Off to check my flight status, then I’m really “oof!”
This is the only time I ever wish I had a smartphone, too. Since I also haven’t been since 2008, I also can’t justify it, even though I do use mine a little more than you do. 🙂
Natalie, I’m in NYC now and can’t use my cell phone at all in the U.S. because I’m not on a monthly plan but use pre-paid minutes. It’s a PITA.
You know you’re in trouble when your phone sends you a text message about rolming charges and offers “financing available”.
LOL, Mike.
