Dani is picking me up tomorrow morning at 8:30 for a bit of a road trip. You see, we’re heading down to Toronto for the ARM Motherlode conference. She will be speechifying, along with a few of my other favourite bloggers. I’m there to lend support and to bask in their sunshine.
Besides, it is high time for a road trip of these proportions.
I am leaving my family at home, which I am not really sad about, but that doesn’t mean that I won’t be feeling a tiny bit sad later. We are both staying at Marla’s, who has written a long and humourous post about her preparations. I suggest you go over and read it. It is very Marla, and I mean that in a good way… :)
I’ve had the pleasure of visiting Marla on a previous trip to Toronto. And I can safely say she is the best hostess, ever.
While I sit here typing and drinking coffee I am going over the things I need to do. The major one: do a load of handwashable laundry and get it on the line to dry ASAP. Why didn’t I do this earlier in the week? How can it be Thursday already? Answer: because I was doing other things, not directly related to this conference. SELFISH things like buying snacks for Friday night (they are for sharing, after the pillow fight and before we put Dani’s bra in the freezer) and shopping for new jeans. I’m a terrible person.
It is shaping up to be a great weekend, and I’m really excited. Perhaps some remote updates to the blog will be in order? Wouldn’t it be cool if the conference room had Wi-Fi? I will have the camera, so there will be plenty of photos when I get back.
Later skaters!
