Things I Forgot
Can I ever take a trip and remember everything??? I’m not sure it’s possible.
I went to the opening reception for RTNDA and right off the bat they want you to put your business card in a fish bowl for a drawing. I put in my card and I have like two left! Duh. How could I forget to bring like 100 business cards???! It’s not like I didn’t have a nice reminder. I was packing my leather laptop case with all the stuff I needed this morning before I left. Well, I won that nice leather laptop case at the Lubbock Business Expo about 10 years ago by putting my business card in a fish bowl :-) NAB has a HUGE exhibit hall here full of stuff to win. Not only that, but it’s harder to network without trading business cards. Great.
The next thing I forgot was my cable to download video into the computer from my camcorder. I shot some video at the reception (Sponsored by Disney) and I thought maybe I’d make a video tonight and put it on YouTube and then embed it here. Oops. I did have my picture made with Mickey Mouse and another with the Toy Story guy. The cowboy. Voiced by Tom Hanks. You know! Anyway, I can’t think of his name.
Not sure what else I forgot. My brain maybe :-)
Vegas Room
OK. Last post until I have to get to the activities. I have to register at the hotel next door and attend the opening reception. (I guess I could skip it, but there is supposed to be food!)
The hotel room is outstanding! You would expect for $200 a night. All the comforts of home. A sink! Microwave, fridge, coffee maker (full size!), a toaster even! There’s a couch (where I’m sitting now) and a nice king bed. I’m on the 16th floor. Although there is no view of the strip, there is a golf course below and some mountains. I could Google it and tell what, but I don’t have time right now :-)
Here are some pics and I’m off to the Hilton next door. Actually it looks like a good 10 minute walk. I’m bringin’ my camera and video camera. Maybe there will be something interesting to talk about by then!
