Pre trip post: leaving tomorrow

Posted by moJoe On September - 30 - 2009

Sweet Jesus on toast!

I have a new appreciation for people who travel to conventions frequently. My wife and I spent all day washing clothes, ironing, packing, checking bank accounts, moving money around, and running errands. And only one of us is even going anywhere! My business cards turned out fairly unimpressive and they wanted to charge me $117 for them after quoting me around $40. To their credit, they lowered the price to $70 and were very gracious about it and–at the very least–they didn’t subject me to religious bigotry of the variety I received from Minuteman.

But, for all that, everything is done and packed and I am ready to roll. My Swiss-Army-Wife not only does laundry, irons and packs things for me, she is also a talented hairdresser, so I can look forward to a much needed haircut in the morning.

Tomorrow I am probably going to do the first of several video logs of my trip which will be posted on YouTube for those of you who really want the candid play-by-play of my trip experience.

So there you go guys: mobile blogging, twitter and a travel video diary. I don’t know if I mentioned this before, but my Blackberry kicks ass.

Only 12 hours until departure for the AAI convention, more to come…
