I'm going to my first CF conference! To be honest, it's because for the first time in 10 years I'm a) close enough to get there by car in under an hour, b) since I've never had a company want to foot the bill, also able to afford this one.
Now I guess I'm going to have to figure out what sessions I can make... and how the heck I can bribe a babysitter to stay long enough so that I can make the Saturday networking event. Ah, the joys of parenthood.
