For the first time ever, my Sig Other Todd is going to accompany me to the conference. Well, sorta... He has to drive to NJ to bring back some engine blocks so he's going to be there for the beginning parts, then leave for NJ and pick me up on Monday on his way home. Depending on what night the banquet is, he might or might not be there. But he'll be at the Friday reception and he's looking forward to meeting the many people that I have mentioned over the years!!!! Please be nice to this non-technie guy when you meet him.
Happy about the formal banquet -- I got a new dress that I haven't had a chance to wear yet ... Karen
