Okay, so I called to make a reservation and she said I didn't need a reservation that I could just buy a ticket at the airport.

So...how do we get to use the Web Coupon. I know it's only $2.00 but I have a feeling I'll need something to drink to cool down while waiting...and yes, I'm talking about a Coca-Cola..(Lord, I hope that' s not Pepsi Country.

)

San Antonio is still the South, Lynn, albeit west of the Mississippi. We can only pray they honor their heritage

. Maybe they even have larger-than-life-Texas-sized bottles of Coke?!
Ah, we digress...

One of the things I had to ditch from my suitcases on the way to Chicago, when I found out I couldn't check baggage on the train, was a 12 pack of Diet Pepsi! I most definitely hope some Pepsi products are available in that hotel!

Appreciation Roses are embroidered red and buff rose stickers that people can place on their nametags. They come with a card where you can write a note to the sister you're giving the appreciation rose to.

You can order them now, or you can purchase them at Convention. It is fun to give the Appreciation Roses to sisters during Convention. Some sisters get so many you can barely see their name on their nametag! I loved receiving them too...I'm geeky and I've saved the notes and my nametags as convention mementos.

I'm so sad that I can't attend this year. I really wanted to go.

I am SO pumped for Convention!! This is my first time getting to go and several people from my chapter will be present as well as the Junior Circles and Alumnae Chapter people from Charlotte. This is definitely going to have to be my "vacation" for the year!

I was asked to be the flag bearer for Alpha Psi Chapter, Ferris State, a resolved chapter in Michigan. I'm very excited

Dee,
For those of us not attending, can you post Convention Pictures (hmmm...looks like another thread)

If they use the same service as last time (or a similar one) the professional ones will all be available online! I will try very hard to take lots of pictures and share them but I do tend to get so busy that I forget to take my camera out. Between all of us who are going, I'm sure we'll have a good selection!

MB: I think I have 3 places to be at once during flag bearing rehearsal, but I'll just have to juggle. I think two of the three things end at 5 and flag rehearsal starts at 5. Note to self: Comfortable shoes are a must that day!

Mr./Ms Jury Person, could you please excuse my hubby early from jury duty. He has to pick me up from the airport 3 hours before the end of your day.

T - 22 days.

T - 20 days before I get on a plane

.

I found out today that I might be needing to pack an LCD Projector. Anyone want to imagine how that might fit in my luggage?

In your carry-on? Seriously, you might have to ship some of your stuff to the hotel if you're going to pack an LCD.

ETA: I think I need to print out a couple day planner pages for Convention. I truly think that I'm triple booked, more than once... I have now been asked to be a Deputy in the Epsilon Pi ceremony and there is a rehearsal that goes along with that also!

ETA (again!): I changed my flight so I'll be leaving SA on the 23rd instead of the 24th. My time off bank was going to be too dangerously low if I took that extra day off. The change in flight cost less than the hotel for the extra day would have, so I guess I saved money too.

Seriously - I'm so in touch with that it isn't even funny. And I'm betting I may have just triple/quadruple booked you with an email I sent you!
