What a day. Up early for my presentation at the board meeting, which went fine.<\/p>\n
Then I picked up something to drink and headed to onsite registration. We finished setting up and had a quick practice section with the website. Before we knew it, registration was open and we had hundreds of people standing in line to register.<\/p>\n
And then, after constant work, it was the end of the day. We were SWAMPED. We’ve never had such a hard Wednesday before. Lines were more than an hour and a half long at some points. Sheri gave me a quick break for the bathroom somewhere in there, but other than that, I powered through hundreds of registrations as fast as I could. All our onsite staff were friggin amazing. They were thrown into chaos and did an above and beyond job. I’ve never been so proud of a group of coworkers. It was magical. This was definitely the hardest Wednesday we’ve ever had at a conference. We’re going to make some changes for tomorrow to see if that works better.<\/p>\n
I finally ate some lunch around 8:00pm (I’m told it’s called first dinner at that point) and then we took the staff photo. After a really good debriefing meeting with everyone, a few of us grabbed some dinner at the food court just as it was closing.<\/p>\n
Then I sat and ate and watched sitcom comedy for two hours while eating everything in sight. LOL<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
