That, up there, is what it's like first thing in the morning. And it got a lot louder. Like Rhianna louder. And then the LoCash Cowboys came out and played country music. I nearly died, and not in a good way.
The intro session was actually quite good -- funny speakers, much ooh'ing and ahh'ing from we the people. Oh, haha, the key speaker's name was Chip Heath. We liked him -- great blend of humor and message in his speech. He also made excellent use of gifs in his powerpoint presentation.
The sessions were quite good as well and we made good use of some free time at the Solutions Pavilion annoying people and scoring toys. Allison and I are planning to debrief on the plane (oh, won't our seatmate heart us) so we can share our knowledge with you all via a mind meld.
Then this evening... Nash Vegas, over in the Opry... something or other. We picked our way across parking lots and lawns in the dark until we found it, realizing only then that we could have walked through the hotel to reach the same destination. No, we were not drunk.
I submit for your approval videos and photos of the party. In case you were wondering (and I know you were) there were Elvises present. That's right, Elvis in plural. We had a Rock Elvis, A Skinny Vegas Elvis, and A Fat Debauched Vegas Elvis. They were fun and made for some entertaining Accountants Gone Wild.
Here's FDVE doing a bit of dancing.
FDVE was breaking... and the Accountants turned on him. He was all right in the end. We spotted him at the bar doing shots.
There was line dancing, always a big hit. Ooooh, I got to do some kind of Cotton Eye Joe dancy thing for a minute. I have video but the wifi connection in this room is poor and won't let me upload. *sob*
Allison with FDVE and SVE.
More with the Elvises. These guys love their jobs.
See ya'll tomorrow.
