I heard that the segment was brief with Nora Roberts, Sherrilyn Kenyon, and Beverly Jenkins. Sarah was used in a short segment. I am sort of disappointed but I loved the experience.

I’ve been a crappy blogger. I blame it on the hectic schedule yesterday. I volunteered at both the am and pm sessions of the literacy signing. In the pm, I served as a low tech Vanna White without the sequins as I recorded the winning raffle numbers on a white board.

There were thirty eight baskets with an average of $200 or more per basket. It was pretty impressive. All the money raised through raffles or book sales go toward literacy. It is a pretty awesome thing.

There were no thigh highs or swan hats this year. The ballroom was big, very noisy and hot. I didn’t get to see much but from what I did see, the event was a success.

There were a couple of video crews. The Today Show was there and someone with AVON on their t shirts. Am not sure what that was about. I’ll try to hunt down Julia Quinn and see if she knows.

I’m moving fairly slowly this am as a result of imbibing too much wine. I’m meeting Heather Osborn for breakfast to pitch my idea of a paranormal blog. Just kidding. About the pitch. Not the other stuff.

Got up early this am for real work stuff and then left to have some breakfast. Saw early birds Alyssa Day and Caridad Ferret who graciously invited me to joins them. We had buffet if you wanted to know. I had fruit and three pieces of bacon. I figure it all balances out.

Day and I exchanged some lawyer war stories and Ferrer suffered our chatter.

I’m now standing in line for Registration which has an inordinately long line for the H-Mcs. Should have chosen a different last name.

The bathrooms at the DFW are disgusting. I felt like needed to shower after exiting.

And of course my flight is delayed for no apparent reason other than the mechanic ran off with the log book. So I am running an hour late. At least. I wouldn’t really mind but that I am rooming with some people who were kind enough to take me in tonight because the hotel had no room and I don’t want them to be kept up all hours waiting for me. That and I have a telephone hearing I have to take at 6:30 in the morning and would like some sleep.

Oh the front door is closed. We may be leaving.

We finally did leave. I watched three episodes of Dexter. Holy creepy batman. Definitely not a show to watch during meals.

I read half of the Jaz Parks book too. It is interesting but kind of confusing. There are scenes which contain several people but for much ofthe passage it is like they aren’t even there and then toward the end, they talk or take action which has me paging backwards wondering what I missed.

Am on the Bart now.

Read 1 chapter of Bitten to Death. Am slightly confused but am enjoying Jaz’s bloodthirsty behavior (not literally since she is not the vamp). But then felt queasy and decided to watch the season premiere of Dexter. Watched half. Still feeling queasy. Tried yo eat somr trail mix and drink half my $1.99 pint of water. Dammit. Why didn’t I bring dramamine. Must stop for drugs at connecting flight.

Touched down. Smooth flight. Only 10 min delayed. Missed connecting flight information. Have 3g capability for the iPhone. Holy crap that is so much faster than Edge (not that most of you care).

I took a nap on the flight after trying to read and watch a shoe and feel quite good right now. Do I stop for
Dramamine or not? Can’t decide.

My in flight reading material.

1 quart bag of toiletries per traveler? Just 1. Gah. How supremely frustrating. I’m determined to carry on and not check. I hate airline travel. Why ate we the only industrialized nation without high speed rail?
