A long but productive day.

It started out full of Sloth; I canceled my 7am personal training session so I could sleep in. (Because I am awesome and had completely cleared my work queue, my boss said I could take the whole day and not just the afternoon off.)
Got up, got the car loaded without Spencer the Goofball getting out of the apartment. \o/ Went and made some more earring cards, grabbed lunch, and headed over to the hotel. I saw Joe Hill outside--boy, he looks like his dad did at that age...
It took me a couple of hours to set up, since I'm much more accustomed to setting up and sprawling out in a 10 x 10 booth, and I was playing with my new display pieces. Then the convention chair came by and said "Oh, by the way, we're going to open the room today at 4..." Arrgh! I was on my way out of the lobby to go home and get my Square attachment for my iPhone when my friend S said, "Hey, I have one you can borrow this evening." I have the Best Friends Ever *.
I did make a couple of sales, so it was worth being open. I do hope they moderate the air conditioning in the room tomorrow. I was COLD.
I do have to get up kind of early tomorrow to get to the UPS center and pick up a package. It requires a signature and the driver seems to insist on coming after the apartment office closes...
* We had a great time last night--had dinner, went to Central Market, ran around and talked talked talked. S is essentially my little brother and I miss him terribly when he's not here.
