Detour: Blogging From The DNC

dnc_hero

This week will be a bit different and I hope you’ll bear with me.  I wanted to have posts lined up from my fellow personal finance bloggers but decided to go with the moment instead.

Right now I’m packing for an early morning flight as we’re headed out for the Democratic National Convention held in Denver, CO.  Going to the DNC this year is HUGE for me as it is both historic and meaningful for various reasons.  I will be here with my husband and some other friends from a local listserv.  We are lined up for quite a few chick events so that should make for some good fun and camera time.

I can’t wait to meet Nancy Pelosi, Michelle Obama and I am praying to meet Michelle Fenty as well.  She is the first lady here in DC, married to Adrian Fenty, DC’s mayor.

Oh, and you’ll get a chance to meet Robyn and Nikki, two attorneys here in DC that I am sure will start cutting up on camera.  Don’t worry, Robyn already has her own show here in DC, The Urban Flow so she is a pro and Nikki is a panelist there as well.  *teehee*  Can you tell I’m excited!?!

I go back and forth about how much of my personal life I want to share on this blog, but I figured why not, this may not be personal finance related but it’s meaningful to me and wanted to share it with you.  But I’ll do my best to add some personal finance related articles as I do have a few ready to go this week.

I bought a Flip Mino just for this so look forward to my vlogging during this week as I’m sure there will be many highs and few lows given the amount of protesters scheduled to be there.

Ginger, over and out.
