Bloggers in Sin City

by Ginny on May 25, 2010

Last Thursday I flew to Vegas for Bloggers in Sin City where I met 68 other bloggers.  Some people think I’m crazy for going to Vegas to meet people from the internet.  You may be right, but I had an awesome time in Vegas while you sat at home thinking about how crazy I am.

I thought I would be nervous, not knowing anyone that was going.  But excitement and alcohol took care of that.  You can’t be nervous when you have a margarita the size of a milk jug in your hand.  I think I had about 3 of those…..

My Vegas roommates were the BEST.  I’m not exaggerating here.  Molly, Becca and Ronda are three of the nicest hottest girls you will ever meet.

I could write a super long post about all the amazingness that was BiSC 2010 but I’ll try to sum it up.

Molly starting the twitter handle on the arm trend.  Becca buying Trader Joe’s wine and food for us so I could have wine and cheese as 80% of my meals.  Discovering that the self in the bathroom works really well to hold your margarita while you’re in the shower.  Bottle service at Planet Hollywood.  Dancing my ass of at Diablo’s.  Tweeting at Leland that I was going to make out with her.  Didn’t happen, but there’s always next year.  Hanging out at the pool.  Our view from the hotel room.  Dinner at Spago.  Winning $18.00 gambling.  Meeting tons of fabulous bloggers.

I’m still recovering.  My flight home sucked.  I took the red eye from LA and got home at 5:30 a.m.  I’m tired and my sleep schedule is completely thrown off but who cares!  It was all worth it.

A huge thank you to Nicole for putting this all together.  I had the best time and I’m hoping there’s a Sin City meet up in 2011.

So fun meeting you at BISC! Sorry to hear about the crappy flight, mine was no better. 3 hour layover in Long Beach, tiniest airport EVER (after a 7 am flight, which was a terrible, terrible idea!). And I came home with a cold, go figure. Jealous you got your own domain! I need mine! Which are you using for hosting?

Suki – It was a great time! I hope you can make it out next year.

Jolene – It was great to meet you too! We should meet up sometime since we both live around Boston. I’m using Dreamhost. So far I’m happy with them and their prices are good.

Oh, there will DEFINITELY be a BiSC 2011. May 19-22, baby.

1) YOU ARE ADORABLE.
2) Wine and cheese for every meal? Yes, I think we’re officially BFF now.
3) HOW DID I NOT THINK TO DRINK IN THE SHOWER? I shower beer/wine at home ALL THE TIME. Oh, probably because every time I showered in Vegas I was trying to wash the drunk OFF of me.

In any case, SO awesome to have met you and can’t wait to keep in touch, stalk your blog, and see you next year!

Oh I am so there in 2011!

Doniree – I saw the shelf in the shower and was like, hey that’s where my drink goes ha ha. So awesome to meet you!

I’m officially feeling recovered enough for BISC2010 to start getting excited for BISC2011. And that’s saying a lot.

You win for having the cutest/martini/adorbzface picture.

I am SO glad we all got to room together. Best decision of the weekend.

@Ben – We need a BiSC recovery group and then a support group to help us wait a whole year for BiSC 2011

@Becca – I was going for that prize! I miss you and your Trader Joe’s crackers.

I’m SO going next year. And you and I are rooming together. Win.

YES! Welcome to the domain club!

Also, I think it’s about time I tell you now to “drink YOUR water.”

Ginny May 27, 2010 at 6:21 am

You drank that water like nobody’s business and there is proof on Twitter

Margarita’s while showering? Brilliant idea! I may have to install a shelf now for that specific purpose – great tip ;)
