Woot woot!! It's a "mini-session" type thing. This conference is HUGE! I'm excited, but also nervous. It's a format called "Ignite." I get 20 slides, 15 seconds a slide, 5 minutes, MAX. No control over the slides...

Congrats and good luck!

DS, you are forever in my heart. Thank you for sharing your beautiful spirit with me. I will always try to live by the example you have set. I love you and miss you every day and am sorry you had to go so soon, it just doesn't seem fair.

congratulations

I trust you is a better compliment than I love you, because you may not trust the person you love, but you can always love the person you trust. - UnknownRelationships are like sharing a book, it doesn't work if you're not on the same page.

@jrc it's in San Antonio. It's a World Wide conference and they got *loads* of applicants (they even extended their decision deadline by a week). My colleagues are impressed and excited for me.

I have to say, since I got separated from ex, a lot of great things have been happening. For one, I think that now that he's no longer part of the package (even for work) I'm more appealing to people. Also, because I"m not so stressed out all of the time with him I have more energy to devote to my career.
