Missing Out

Damn you, friends and family. If I didn't have so many commitments stacked up this year, I might be attending one of the events that's (I would like to think) driving my site traffic down right now. One is Yearly Kos in Las Vegas, a national convention of progressive bloggers. The other is the Texas State Democratic Party Convention in Fort Worth, where the Texas netroots is in the progress of gaining a tremendous amount of influence in the state party, and networking with one another. I, on the other hand, have six weddings this year, as well as a few other planned junkets, and not enough vacation to take them all.

I've made my choices, of course, and they're the right ones. But I definitely feel like I'm missing out on the tremendous energy that's going on in the progressive blogging world right now.
