STC conference
03.16.05 (8:18 am)   [edit]
I am part of the Society for Technical Communication, and every year they have a conference. I went to one in Santa Clara, CA, USA back in ... must have been 2001. I was still new with my company, and I wasn't old enough to rent a car in California. :lol:

This year it's going to be in Seattle, WA, USA, which means...a very close drive and SHOPPING! I haven't been to one of these conferences since, and I would like to go. Only this time, work won't be able to pay for it. My coworker said I could have the cost written off my taxes, but since I'm not a registered business, I wonder if I can still do that. Something to ask my accountant friend!

I almost forgot about the conference.

I can't forget about next year's because it's going to be in Vegas :D

I'd better start planning this Seattle trip...Early registration rates ends in a few weeks. And maybe I can see what other hotels are in the area. I'd like to be as close to the convention centre as possible, which means more $$$$ It's going to be pricey to stay overnight for 3 nights :shock: My coworker is thinking of going for one day.

Maybe this will mean holding off on taking a digital photography course. I did find one which goes on for 10 weeks. It's one day a week for 3 hours at a time, which is kind of a big commitment for me right now. However, Saturday afternoons do interest me.

No :( This year they are not providing any food! Well, there will be lunch vouchers, but I doubt Cheerios will be on the menu :(

That is a good plan! I don't think anyone would mind if I brought in the whole box to all my seminars!!
