Notes from the Children Services Area Conference
24 February 2003-5:48 p.m.
Today got up dreadfully early. My eyes should not be opening at 5 in the morning. sat in car for long time. All to end up Macon. Am now at dreadfully boring conference. Looking around room, have decided I simply must go to the gym. Cannot abide thought that I might end up looking like a children's librarian. Many women in this room are quite large. Did see man in chaps and sleeveless shirt *squee* Very nice arms. Really wish he hadn't left to go change. Also an enormous onion named Yumion. Yes I have now met him. Feel as weakkneed as if I met a celebrity. *gasp*
Had fabulous dream last night that benefactor gave me a laptop with wireless internet. Quite lovely. V. sad when I woke up and it was gone.
Listening to very boring speaker at the momoent. Pretty pictures, can't talk. Oh lord she can't read her slides. Long pause.
Also feeling the need to buy fashion magazine. Looking around and realizing I am in a room full of women who think apples appliqued on swaeters is a majorly good fashion choice. *shudder*
Have fallen in to trap of nowhere to go. v. few breakout sessions this year. Tink I might go learn how to tie knots. Can't see where it would come in handy for a program, but possible fun in other areas. Hmmm. Have an hour until lunch. Brought bread and cheese. Unfortunately forgot to bring knife. Blast! *seethes with frustration* Breakfast was McDonalds and it's quite hard for me to consume that much grease taht early in the day. Also breakfast food at McDonalds not v. good. Actually quite foul.
Looking forward to leaving. Suppose this is better than a day at work but seems a waste. I never seem to learn anything. Breakouts quite pointless in past years but at least was a variety.
It's absolutelyfreezing in here.
ooo nice looking men in suits walking by *sigh* Perk up. Probabyl gay.
Spent several minutes looking for someplace warm. Apparently only the conference rooms. Every other place has big doors to the outside. Am now settnig out on a quest for a hot beverage. Really should look at script for Bent, as I'm assistant directing it.
Damn coffee from morning taken away. obviously a plot to deny me caffine and warnth. Seem to remember being quite warm at the last one of these. Should have know to bring a sweater. Perhaps with appliques on it. Possibly of boats. Would fit the theme. Would be quite the looker here. Wonder if I could carry off boat theme. Large breasts might inhibit proper look. Think I will stick with my saucy tavern wench idea. Better to go with your strengths.
More later....
