BlogWorld – Day 1 Evening

I left BlogWorld and hopped onto the monorail to get back to my hotel. Having been to Vegas two times before, I was excited to ride the monorail. It wasn’t here my two prior visits. You still end up doing a ton of walking, but it definitely does help to get around. The monorail dropped me off at the Hilton. I then walked to my hotel.

Actually, my hotel wasn’t really a hotel at all. Instead, it is a Hilton timeshare. What is a timeshare? Basically, what I did was to rent condos for the 3 nights I was there (actually make that 1 condo for all three nights). Bill and I did not buy a condo. We just borrowed my inlaws. I do think you can buy these as condos for sale. I know this is super confusing. However, since we don’t belong to this, I have a very limited understanding of it. The room was gorgeous. I love staying in places that are better than my house. I had a king size bed for all of me. It was great. Since there was only me staying there, I only got the studio. However, if Bill would have come with, I definitely would have gotten the 1 bedroom. Otherwise, we would have been on top of each other and driving one another bananas.

Once I got settled, I met up with several other bloggers for dinner at a German place there. Anybody who was with — please let me know the name. Bill has been to Germany, and I would love to see if he went there or not. However, I do not know the name of the place. I took a couple of pictures. For some reason, a lot of pictures turned out really dark, so bear with me.

I forgot to take a picture of the beer. It was huge (like a liter of beer). Dinner took forever, but it was good and fun to meet up with everyone!

BlogWorld – Day 1 Afternoon

Mr. Fab and I decided to eat there at the conference center. I wanted a pepperoni pizza. They didn’t have it, so I ended up with a cheese pizza instead. Then it happened. I went to put Mr. Fab’s phone number into my cell phone, and it wasn’t there! (mini freak out starts now). Luckily, we were at a booth, I had looked at my phone for the time, and then we walked to lunch. It couldn’t have went far. While I emptied out my computer bag, Mr. Fab walked back to place we bought lunch and looked there. We constantly tried calling it. Then Fab came back and I went back to the last booth we were at and retraced my steps. No phone. Trying not to freak out at this point. After calling my phone at least 20 times, finally somebody picked up! It was were we bought lunch!!! Whew!!! If I wasn’t married, I might have kissed Mr. Fab right then and there. I only use my phone sparingly, but it has all of the important numbers I need. It was my way to keep in contact with the other bloggers in Vegas. We finished our lunches and I was going to go check into my hotel. Mr. Fab was going to head back and take a nap (I think).

Well, I got hung up there and decided to go to the sessions I signed up for. Should have went to the hotel instead. The sessions were not quite what I expected. The first session I went to I ended up writing two posts during, checked my email, and read a couple of the forums I am a part of. Yeah, a little bored, but thank goodness for free WiFi. The second session was just as bad. The speaker was pretty much promoting his company that doesn’t allow most people in. Yeah, waste of time. I actually walked out early and found a bathroom to use instead. I headed over to the Izea booth at this point to hopefully catch Ted (which I did):

Yeah, he’s a little crazy. Some may think he needs drug rehab or alcohol rehab or both. However, the guy reminds me of an excited 5 year old. His enthusiasm is actually quite addicting. Shortly after meeting Ted, it was time to go and check into my hotel.
