So we’re all here in sunny Fort Lauderdale, which I’m only now just figuring out is part of this whole Miami-Palm Beach continuum despite having a grandmother who lived in Palm Beach for some 25 years or so. Sometimes geography is challenging.
I’m excited about this year’s conference because of the many sessions about classroom technology (which I hope aren’t all at the same time). It’s also nice to get to see everyone again. Tonight I met up with 8 other attendees and went to Mangos. Dinner was a lot of fun, but I’m still suffering from baby-induced sleep deprivation so I didn’t participate as much in some of wonderful conversations as I might have (topics ranged from the future of print in libraries to how on earth does Jack Bauer make it through so many days without ever going to the bathroom). I was, however, able to tell everyone the fascinating story of how I gave birth, a story without which no meal is complete. Speaking of giving birth, if you stop by and ask nicely, I’ll show you my new baby and how I’ve already bruised it a bit. Also pictures of my other new baby which reside on it. Did you know that when you buy a MacBook Pro from the Apple store, they congratulate you? Considering how much I just spent, I would also like a card and flowers. I’ll be up bright and early tomorrow to head to the conference, where I’ll blog the various sessions I attend and whatever else I feel like. And those future entries might use that great Internet technology called “links” so my entries will look less like a Live Journal post and more like a real blog. See you tomorrow!
