My conference is going. It's in session right now so I'm taking a break.
I got here at 6am. None of me helpers showed up until 8. I was doing all the set up by myself and then ppl started showing up and I had no one to man the registration desk.
But the worst part. My super spiffy, never worn, super cute suit split at the skirt seam. At 7:20am. It's not too tight or anything. Just apparently crappy material and I squatted. Duct tape and staples right now. *sob*. I'm about to track down safety pins.
I'm sorry--I read your comment about the ice earlier. I don't have a lot of time in the morning to stop anywhere, but I would have stopped the night before and thrown it in my freezer. That's pretty rude that no one would help you out.
