day one and a half

My flight here was uneventful. Uneventful and tiring.

I rode in a limo to the hotel which made me feel like an even bigger country girl because i was so excited about it.

My arrival saw me in tears at the registration desk as my credit card was denied and they wanted double the amount of cash as my total bill. I was ready to walk away when gwendomama, who is the sweetest woman in the world, swooped in and saved my day with a simple swipe of her credit card.

I have a room of my own that, despite the expense, seemed mandatory for my mental health.

Rachel and i crashed the AllTop/Kirtsy party at Guy Kawasaki's house. It was an amazing house and really a lovely party. Although i'm not listed on AllTop i can say that i licked Mr Kawasaki's pasta fork.

I'm not sure if i'm feeling a little more confidant this year, or what? But, i am having a better time, talking to more people and really not feeling the pressure or stress.

An uneventful flight is a good thing. So is a limo ride. And bless gwendomama for saving the day! Glad you are having a better time.

I am sorry that it started out bad but I hope that you have an amazing time from here on out. WTG on crashing the party. That takes some balls.

I so would love to be there and meet you. There's always the Maybe Next Year. :)
