I was spotted at my booth this morning!
This is Amy. Everyone say ‘Hi Amy!’ 
Amy and her friends were huddled together just outside my booth this morning and when I went to offer them free pencils Amy stepped forward and proclaimed ‘I read your blog!’ It was fun and exciting to find a blog reader in the craziness that was ISTE 2010. My co-worker immediately told me to grab a my camera so she could snap a photo of us and then I shoved about a billion free pencils into Amy’s bag.
That was actually a fun note to end this year’s conference on. I’m not sure if my company will be returning to this particular conference, but I would say it was fun attending this year and playing with all the ‘big boys’ in the field.
As predicted my yogurt did little to old me over this morning. I stopped on the way into the center and grabbed some Heart Thrive cookies and nibbled on them through the morning.
I had my heart set on Falafel King for lunch. Not sure why?
I ordered the falafel combo with tabouli and buba ganoush.
With a whole wheat pita on the side.
The food was actually pretty bad. This was nothing compared to the mediterrean delis down the street from my work in Orlando. I think that place has spoiled me. Oh well. I ate about half of everything pictured above and washed it all down with a refreshing unsweetened passion fruit tea from Starbucks.
I’m currently waiting to board my plane at DIA and am debating a smoothie for dinner. My mouth is so dry and a smoothie just sounds much more refreshing then trying to carry on a sandwich or salad of some sort.
Hmmmm… decisions, decisions.

Welcome to Hump Day everyone!
I guess hump day isn’t as much of an exercise day as Monday because the hotel gym was EMPTY this morning. Monday I had to wait a good 5 minutes for a free treadmill and today more than half were empty. Strange.
However, the treadmill was not calling my name this morning – the elliptical was. I set the elliptical on a random hill course and vegged out with my book. I just finished Something Borrowed – a book I read back in 2005, but didn’t remember one thing about it – and picked up Something Blue at Barnes & Noble last night. So far I’m really enjoying Something Blue, I love how the author wrote the follow up book from Darcey’s perspective. It’s a nice change of pace from the other novel and provides the follow up story I felt I was short handed on at the end of the first one.
For breakfast I ventured back to the Corner Bakery to try the Berry Almond Swiss Oatmeal that looked so tasty when I was last here on Monday. Unfortunately the Swiss Oatmeal had bananas pre-mixed in it and they couldn’t remake any on the spot. Bummer.
Instead I ordered the yogurt and berry parfait.
The parfait contained tons of fresh berries and was really tasty, however it was also really small. I felt somewhat satisfied after finishing the tiny bowl, but I know it’s only a matter of time before my tummy starts growling at me for more. My plan is to stop at the corner market on the way to the convention center for a substantial morning snack to hold me over.
Today is my last day in Denver. I work the tradeshow booth until noon then head straight to the airport for my direct flight back home. If all goes according to plan I should be back in Orlando by 9:30 tonight. Sweet!
