The only significant obstacle to my attendance, though, the only obstacle that really matters, has just been cleared: my wife has officially given me permission to go.
Which means that if I have to sleep on the streets to afford it, I'm going. Oh, am I going.
And you should go too. If you've never met the people behind the blogs you read every day, then you haven't really discovered how cool blogging is. I hope to meet as many Mere-O readers there as possible. Ultimately, if we blog well, we blog for others and not ourselves--any opportunity to meet those others and share live conversation is intrinsically rewarding.
And besides, where else are you going to hear me opine on the greenness that we all know--well, most of us know--angels see?
In addition to regulars like Joe, John Schroeder and Mark Roberts, I'm really looking forward to seeing Justin Taylor, the Verum Serum guys, Jimmy Akin, Tom Gilson, Andy Rau, Charlie Lehardy and the rest of the ThinkChristian Guys, and the rest of the people behind the blogs in my feed reader (over 100--I just don't have time to list everyone right now!).
It's going to be a grand time. I hope to see you there.
