Better late than never... Anyone going to the BEABBC? I'm a little nervous about going into a room full of strangers and would love to chat with a few bloggers who are going to be there.

I am going and I am a stalker of your blog!!! So I know you really well *creepy voice* lol jk
I'm going to be there! And I won't know anyone either. I'm hoping we have some time to introduce ourselves and interact.
I just became much easier to spot. I broke my toe on Saturday, so look for the woman hobbling around in one of those lovely boots, and come say hi. :)
@Alice You stalker :) That's awesome! I can't wait to meet you guys! I'm like you Hannah, I'm like "they're all going to laugh at you!" (Stephen King Carrie style)
Shyness aside, it's going to be great! Looking forward to meeting all of you. I will start stalking all of your blogs directly :)
@Go Flash Go - Poor Stephanie :( I hope you burn that candle down to the wick for hurting your foot!
Hannah - that's awesome! How long is your flight to get here?
Wow!!!! Be sure to walk around on your long flight. I just had just a six hour flight from Hawaii and both of my ankles swelled up to where I almost couldn't walk. It took a whole day for my cankles to get back to normal!
Ugh. Is that going to mess up your connections?

DEFINITELY take the time to walk around during your flights, Hannah! And if you're worried about swelling, maybe take a pair of those compression socks. They should help!
Good luck with your flights! Here's hoping everything goes perfectly. :D

I'm sorry to post this in two places, but I thought it would make sense to ask all of you who are attending the Bloggers Conference, because I still haven't gotten a reply from BEA.... Did you purchase a separate ticket to attend BEA on Thurs-Sat, along with your $135 Bloggers Conference ticket? I didn't think it was necessary because the BEA site states, in regards to the conference: "This pass includes Continental Breakfast & Boxed Lunch at BEA Bloggers Conference as well as a BEA pass for May 30-June 1."
However, I just clicked on a link in my registration e-mail, and it has a little table with a question that asks: With the Bloggers Conf badge, do I get access to BEA? The reply is: No, you must purchase a BEA pass.
I have no idea which is correct, and unless I'm misreading something, the two statements are completely contradictory. I don't know if I can paste a picture here, but I tweeted it out to BEA (@ReadRinseRepeat - 2nd to last tweet if you view the conversation). So far, they have not replied to my tweets or my voice mail.

It may be that now they've jacked up prices since it's so close to BEA and their early bird special no longer includes those two as a combo.
Trust me. You're fine.
Ok. Thanks, Hannah! I'm a worry wart. :)
It seems to me that when registration first opened up, the expo wasn't included. But they promptly changed it to BBC with the expo included in the total price. Maybe they didn't update the email? Don't worry. If it turns out otherwise, I promise there will be drama tomorrow :)
