Blog World Expo Las Vegas

Blog World Expo was even MORE fun today than yesterday, if you can believe it. I have video to prove it… I arrived just after noon to find a wonderful luncheon set out, free drinks and lots of friendly bloggers and exhibitors.

After wandering around, saying hello to numerous people, I sat down at at table with a few other people, made friends quickly and Drew arrived to join us. We went over to the ‘cashinator’ booth so he could video me grabbing the moolah – and I made a good showing (I think) with $17.00 when I exited the air tunnel! Of course, I’d watched others trying to grab the cash and I’d formulated a plan… As soon as the air started, I bent over to let my body ‘catch’ the bills – they stuck to my crotch first, then my stomach then my forehead and I was grabbing madly. Drew probably has a very funny video and I’m sure it will be embarrassing, but it was all in good fun.

Ted and David came by while I was hanging out with Nate from UBD and I just had to video David and Nate doing the long jump and winning prizes. I talked the hostess into a WII game (YES!!!) since I planned to blog this event. I am learning Drew Crystal lost her IZEA t-shirt (how is that possible when you are wearing it Crystal?) when we were in Orlando so I begged Ted for a new one for her. He was gracious enough to comply and acted ‘normally’ for this video – no faces, no hamming, no tedding, he was serious. He’s a nice guy! Thanks Ted.

After sitting in the bloggers lounge, talking to Drew for a while, I headed out on the monorail for the Tropicana. Kent was still at the auction and our friends were there with him, so I chose to go there for the rest of the afternoon. I’d say I had free beer, but that wouldn’t really be the truth since Kent bought out the auction… where is he going to put all this STUFF???

After the auction we went back to the Tropicana, had a drink, then we had dinner in the cafe. THEN I lost way too much money in the casino……… tomorrow I will be good!
