Nope-can't use the car as an excuse THIS time..you've it before..I remember...can't use WORK either..already been done...you (and others) griped and griped about events not being "close enough"..well...HERE IT IS..people are driving in from all over..me included-coming in from THE STICKS to THE BIG CITY..

Dallas has cabs, mass transit, etc, etc, etc...just sayin'...PLUS peeps here are offering rides...

Anymore more excuses you want the "TMB Mom" to blow a hole in????

Rebecca ~ I am a mewbie to this whole convention thing.  My plan was just to stay close by because I will have to change and get ready for the "party".  Please look for me or text me (817-301-4879)  I would be more than happy to have a dinner partner

Can we pick who goes in the trunk?  I've got a couple of people in mind.  (Kidding!!)

I've got 2 very good possibilities in mind.  Would be a tough decision.  But I'm sure a lot of you guys would like to put ME in there instead!!

Speaking of which ...

 I was going to do a post on the "new traffic laws" that went into effect in Texas 9/1/09, but, as Gina would point out, I procrastinated ..    

  One of the new laws, though, now requires EVERYONE in the vehicle to wear a seatbelt, no matter where seated, and kids below a certain height have to use a kid's safety seat. 

  For the bikers, kids below a certain age (I think it 's 12, but can't remember of the top of my head right now) must now ride in a sidecar and not on the bike seat ..  (yea, right   ).  Bikers also no longer have to put up a health insurance "bond" in order to qualify to ride w/o a helmet.   Now everyone can ..  yeehawww

 I will take all number down and text away :) I say meeting in the lobby is a fab Idea... I will also have my hubs car so as for car pooling to somewhere I can only fit one other person and the trunk is barely gonna fit my bag and not because it's going to be a big one (that will be in the front seat on the way down there) staying on site sounds good as long as there are plenty of places that don't serve pasta or salad... I will have my cooler in the room for emergency food also :) I'm the one who has to eat non stop or I loose weight  (I am just now back up to 128)... 

Ok so I have seen this dance thingy mentioned... I didn't realize that there is an actual event thing. So what is the dress attire for it? I don't want to be the odd ball out... Ok steph I already know what your thinking lol... I can't wait to see all my family

As for the name tag are we to print our avatar out and wear it? Need advice my fam... Love to you all and can't wait to party with ya

Dress attire for the dance is anything from casual to coktail.  Some will come in jeans/capri's others will be "black coctail dress".  Me, I've decided to wear a black and white sundress type thing unless it's too cold then who knows, I could end up in sweats!!

Name tags will be provided by the OH crew when you sign in.  Most people carry copies of their "before" pics with them to show off to those they meet.
