Totally random...

A few months ago my back went out inexplicably one day. I just woke up one morning in horrible pain. So after drugs, physical therapy, chiropractors, 3 weeks in the woods hurting it more, then another month of stronger drugs, Wednesday I had an Epidural shot of a steroid into my spine. Wow, I didn't enjoy it near as much as pregnant women who talk about getting their epidurals and life was good. Sure they get different medicine, but having a baby must be really painful that a needle into the spine is a welcome relief!! Makes me think having nieces and nephews is way better than having my own children!! Just kidding, maybe I'll have kids one day still... a LONG time from now!!!!

Hang in there... with your back and with disappointments about not geting approved for Lotusphere.
I STRONGLY encourage you to submit a session abstract. Your angle can be that your are: 1. new to the community (Important! we want new folks!)
2. youg (Um maybe? I can't tell if u are young)
3. Female. I am sure you have noticed that there are boaut 4of us WOMEN in the Lotus universe who blog.

What the heck, submit 2 or 3 different ideas. Maybe 1 in best practices on "blogging as a customer' and anotherin a completely different track.



Good luck!

Thanks Mary Beth!
Being in male dominated fields keeps happening to me! Between the Army National Guard, the male dominated oil industry, and all the men of the Lotus Community it's nice to have a little female unity!! I've been thinking on the issue since hearing from you and Rock and Duff and Gregg and... lol
Hopefully something insightful comes to me soon and I will submit something. Everyone keep an out for the "Young, Female, Noob Track!"
