Hi - It's really DoctorD! I'm in AGDee's room using her internet because I'm too cheap to pay $9.95 every day. I'll pay it some, just not tonight!

My suitcase was exactly 50 pounds... one more pound over and it would have cost me $80. For those of you still packing, remember that one bag over the one allowed [on Delta] is $25. Packing in 2 bags might have been better, and I'm not sure how I will pack on the return trip!

Water out of the machine is $2.00. FYI...

If you want to figure out who I am...just look for the Alpha Gam without pinky nails...they never last me that long... :D

I hope you all are having an awesome time!

We definitely are. The Knibbe Ranch was the most fun event I've ever experienced at a convention! Everybody was up dancing to "Sweet Home Alpha Gamma", "We Are Family" and "Play that Funky Music"... lol. Some sat on Oreo and got their pictures taken (Oreo is a black and white Texas longhorn) and some participated in armadillo races while others went on a hay ride. We had Texas barbecue brisket and chicken with the best mashed potatos in the world. Very very fun night! 8x10 was taking TONS of pictures so I'm sure they'll all be up.

The Knibbe Ranch was so AWESOME!!!!

My highlight definitely had to be racing an armadillo...they are too cute...

I wanted to take one home to NC...but I don't think they would like the weather much :cool::D

On a side note...I'm SO proud of my sister daughter...she will be representing the sorority as a Leadership Consultant this year... I'm a proud mom...what can I say :D:)

But here's the important question--where will Convention be in 2010?!

AGDZO Susan 06-23-2008 04:06 PM

Grab your sunscreen - it's in Tampa, Florida!

AWESOME TIME!
 
Although I'm not as tired as previous Conventions, lol.

Great to see old friends and make new ones.

THRILLED to talk with one of my idols...Laverne TF. She came to my chapter when I was a collegiate and I have always thought the world of her.

THANK GOODNESS FOR SUZANNE!! She found my Badge when it dropped out of my pocketbook.

While waiting for the plane today, she and Michelle M and I were talking about Badges. Turns out my Badge was first given to someone from Alpha Alpha!!! How ironic that hubby grew up in Tonawanda..a suburb of Buffalo.

AGDee 06-23-2008 07:53 PM

Linda K, an AA and a PD is from North Tonawanda.

Your roommate was none too happy with us for calling your room!

I'm more tired than I've ever been after a Convention. And the kids have had me running since I got home. I sooo wish I didn't have to work tomorrow.

I am finally home! This was my favorite Convention EVER! I saw everyone and think I had a picture taken with evey other collegian there. It was so awesome!!!!!!!

Everyone did a great job! Lee, Dee (nise), Nancy, ect. Met so many I wanted to put a face with and reconnected with others!

Does anyone know the name of the photo web site???

Love to all my Alpha Gam dancers!!!

I concur! Great convention, and I'm tired, but also still on Central Time... just a little bummed AGD4Rie and I didn't get the $400 Delta voucher for giving up our seats on the flight home. And yay for the Ticket Agent who let my overweight bag slide...

Good to see so many folks! I love how recharged I am after convention!
