Running Crazy

There are a lot of people here. The conference is insanely huge, and it’s easy to get lost in everything that’s going on.

By the time I arrived at the convention center earlier this afternoon, most of the panels were wrapping up. I got registered, picked up my badge, and then went out to dinner. Spaghetti Warehouse. There was a bat flying around, resulting in a multitude of screaming girls. And men.

I learned that even with SXSW’s expensive admission costs, there are a few other conventions that can be up to double that price. Apparently, this is a festival that a lot of people pay their own way to attend.

I may have walked about three hundred miles around the city tonight. It seems like there are a hundred different evening events going on at once, and as everyone is always constantly looking for another one, the crowds never really calm down. Everything is pretty much in walking distance, unless you’re wearing heels. Don’t ever wear heels.

I’m hoping that by tomorrow, I’ll be more acquainted with how everything rolls. I’m looking forward to a ton of panels and other fun things, thereby hopefully providing you with more useful and/or entertaining information.

  1. I’d like to officially put my vote down in favor of heels. Thank you.
