Day 2 of the San Diego conference. I overslept a little... belatedly discovered that the pants I'd packed are the ones the button came off last week... finally found a paperclip to improvise.... Ahhh, adventure...

It took me 5 minutes to reach the convention center and about 30 minutes to get into the parking garage. Tomorrow I'll play dirty and cut folks off instead of obeying traffic laws as posted. I was cut off by lots of sly conference goers this morning and felt the tinge of envy... Darn them! Why didn't I think of that?!

Then I waited in line at the Starbucks vendor inside the CC for another 30 minutes to buy a coffee and a pastry, even though I'm not a coffee drinker. The line at Mrs. Fields was much shorter, but I couldn't bear to part with that extra $.75 to get a cookie and an apple juice. $2.50 for a normal sized cookie?? What's up with that? Can't do it. Not for breakfast anyway. For $2.25 I got a yummy chocolate croissant instead!
