I'm always done for any kind of party lol. It's going to be funny when you're introduced to someone and you say, "oh I remember that post you wrote," or "I love the comments you post on my blog."

PARTY!!!

I think I am one level lower than an introvert (if there is something like that), may even be socially challenged :) If I can hide under a rock I would :) But I know it doesn't work like that so I try to make myself talk. I mean I seriously try, I have taken toastmasters and "try" to chat up more, but I have a long ways to go 

Suba, kudos to you for trying to stretch yourself. I'm sure you've come much farther than you know.

I thought about logo shirt, but I'll need a maternity shirt and I don't know that I want to make a tee shirt that I can only wear for a few months. 

I think we should all have pins with our blog names and logos on them.

I just hope everyone wears a nametag (or neon sign!) with their site name on it – I'm scared I'll never remember who belongs to what blog. You guys don't know how close I came to ordering a t-shirt with my logo on it. Then I realized I'd probably feel dumb wearing it, plus I doubt anyone would recognize it anyway!

 

I'm super excited about the conference. It drives me crazy that I can't talk about it with anyone in real life! I'm even looking forward to the super long drive. By the way, if anyone is interested in carpooling, I'm in western KY. Email me if you're close!

I almost bought a logo shirt too!  I still might.  I did buy a tote bag that I plan on carrying pretty much everywhere.  And I would recognize your blog name!

It looks like my wife and I are going. Now I just have to figure out how to brand a tote bag or clothing for both of my sites!

Yes, very new and happened faster than I expected! I'll be blogging about it in the next week or two. I'll be about 20 weeks at the conference.

Congrats!  It will be so exciting to have a new little nickle or dime as part of your family!

Thanks! Sorry about the thread hijack. Let's get back to conference gabbing!

I would guess that there will be nametags at conference, and we're all bringing our business cards, right? A tote bag isn't a bad idea for carrying the swag (business cards given and received, notepad and/or laptop, etc.) Does VistaPrints do tote bags?

I might be wrong, but I believe tote bags are included with our conference ticket. 

 

I was thinking about tote bags with our own logos on them. I remember them asking for T-shirt size but didn't see the tote bag mention.

101 Days!

I'm going to pass out LRN-branded thongs.  Yay!
