Anyone close to me knows that I was extremely excited about Vloggercon 2006, and even more charged about what I could deliver in terms of my experience at the conference. Well I’m sad to say that excitement began to take a dive after my plane connection in Detroit on Friday. I felt a little sick, but I just shrugged it off as “air sickness.” Then, 10 minutes after landing in San Francisco I was hugging the toilet and puking something fierce. On Saturday, I felt worse and decided to rest so that I would have a chance of at least enjoying the activities on Sunday. But on Sunday I felt worse than Saturday. Now by this time I’m not even thinking about the conference, I’m just concerned with getting back to the east coast and in my own bed (I mean I would rather be sick at home than over 2,000 miles away while I’m a guest in someone’s home). So that was my Vloggercon trip. Today I feel much better (Mon. and Tues. was difficult). I still can’t believe I traveled that long way without attending one session–very disappointing. But there is a bright side; I met Mary Hodder, whom I lodged with. She was too kind, and kept reassuring me that she was ok with me being there even though I was so sick. We talked briefly between my bouts of sickness, and I’m looking forward to meeting her again under different circumstances. Perhaps if she attends Converge South!
