Tomorrow, I will be heading on a road trip from Southern California to Northern California. I will be carpooling with Ciaran (@momfluential) in a brand new 2011 Lexus LX SUV. Ciaran says that we will be floating along in a gray cloud of luxury. I hope we float along smoothly, and make it through Los Angeles before the traffic starts. Our third partner, Kelly (@according2kelly), had to cancel last minute as her son had an accident and broke his arm. Ciaran and I have been thinking about Kelly and little Owen all day. Kelly didn’t know it, but she was supposed to be our pilot. She is the planner….
Ciaran and I are headed to Bloggy Boot Camp in San Francisco….we will be joining over a 100 other bloggers for a one-day conference. Ciaran and I will both be speaking at the event, and we can’t wait!
I’ve been working on fabulous presentation the past few days, ok maybe, I’ve been up all day and night working on it. I even taunt myself how to save my document from iWork09 to a PDF, yay me.
I can’t wait to speak, although I’m sweating bullets. I just won’t mention that I took public speaking about three times in college. I went from an F-to a D-to a B, I think? I have a problem with talking too fast. I might have to remember to breath amongst my chatting, I mean speaking. I’ve developed a presentation that works around my fast-talking/non-memorizing issues. I will be combining a handout with some storytelling. I’m always good at telling a story.
I guess I should start packing, or sleeping right now…since I’m leaving at 5am, or something like that. Oh, and my presentation, here’s my topic!
PRIVACY and YOUR BLOG
Privacy, tracking visitors, and more about keeping your personal info personal, while still blogging authentically.
P.S. While writing this post, my blog crashed. It was a server issue with my host company. They were able to fix it. I swear, I have a curse. EVERY time, I go to a major event or conference, my blog goes down, and messes up.
Disclosure: Ciaran got the Lexus LX SUV for a review. I know, crazy, isn’t it. We get to do a road trip in style. How posh is that!
