I am here! And I have the right clothes! (for the moment) And I talked to Yellow! When I first got here, I saw that the hotel had internet access for $5/15 minutes. Yikes. I came across the street to the conference, where one of the sponsors has a 4 computer "e-cafe" that we can use as much as we want. It is alarming to realize how attached I am to checking email and the TE board! Glad to touch base with you all.

In an odd twist on the packing dilemma, I found I brought eleven pair of socks. For a 4 night stay. I must've just thought, "socks! I must pack socks!" And they're all athletic socks. 5 years ago I did not own more than three pair. My feet will be clean and dry and fresh, that's for sure!
