Preparing for Mind Numbing

Preparing for the most boring day of the year -- District Conference Day. I wish, sometimes, that I had more of a cheerleader mentality. It would certainly help in rah-rah situations like this.

Last year wasn't too bad -- I went to the most BS sessions I could find, including one on face reading. After the conference everyone in my division was talking about what they learned in a session on security while I talked about what the dean's nose signified. I spent $15 on a face-reading book, and tried to use my newfound knowledge as a flirt tool, but made the mistake of trying it out on the least frivolous man I've ever met. Sold the book on half.com for a little more than I paid for it, and considered the entire event a reminder of just how stupid I can be when it comes to men.

Anyway, tomorrow starting at the criminal hour of 8:00 AM I'm doing storytelling, stress relief, and writing your personal philosophy. Fun stuff, huh? Maybe I can find a way to use the philosophy stuff as an ad for match.com so I at least get something out of the day.

I've loaded my iPod and my ebook reader. I think I'm ready.
