CLA Day 3

Yes, I lost a day of blogging.


Recap, Yesterday was Latino Saturday.




Today was Cataloging Sunday.

Yesterday I met some fabulous people from multiple REFORMA chapters in California. Martin of the L.A. Chapter brought this huge banner for our booth - and let us cover up the Los Angeles part and California chapters....then we were trying to hang it up with little twist ties i brought from home and it wouldn't stay.... after many attempts - a vendor took pity on us and gave us 4 exhibit hooks which look like shower curtain hooks.

Then I was running back and forth helping out our Reforma booth which was like a cool hang out and at our Cataloging section booth ... just being on the exhibit floor and answering questions and pimping associations, seeing friends from library school and past jobs was exciting, but it really tires a person. After quite a few hours - i was feeling squirrly and bumped into my lovely friend Marie- she said, girl, you don't look quite right again realized that I hadn't eaten all day...so thank goodness for her - and we went to lunch and she helped me get centered.

I am too tired to finish discussing the Fabulous Latino Round Table Meeting, where we had record attendance and I was able to turn over the gavel to a great new chair, Janice. We also all then went on a taqueria run to a cute little place in San Jose, that had nice - outdoor patio sitting. Then we went to an after party at Roberto Delgadillo's two room hotel party in the JW Marriott....we even had some Reformistas there that didn't even go to the conference.
Much more to say about all that - but so sleepy and i am meeting someone for day 4 of CLA tomorrow at 7:30 am.

Besos
