Only one thought went through my head as I got back to my hotel room after spending the day on the show floor, in meetings, and getting 50,000 volts jolted through my body, and that thought was, "GET A DRINK." My night was supposed to start off by Tunnel Flying with Nicole Sheridan and her Husband, Voodoo. Unfortunately, they hit ridiculous amounts of traffic getting into Vegas, (stupid I-15) so we settled on meeting for a drink later. With that said, I ran over to the Saitek party at the Bellagio, where I met Angie Kibiloski, the Entertainment Editor for Computer Times, (a family-run magazine, how cool!).

The irony of having a book party for a book about fat kids and then having plates and plates of Krispy Kremes was not lost on me. Gift pillowcases done very well, courtesy of Klein Creative. Stephanie over there is really starting to make a name for herself. Very impressive, she’s becoming. Yoda sounding like, I am. Abby, as she always has, looks fabulous.
