Friday ended up being quite a busy and exciting day. Early in the day a friend passed along some tickets to the San Gennaro Feast, so we made plans to attend that evening.
A short time later while glancing at Twitter, I saw @ClickBooth announcing the winner of their @BlogWorld contest that I had entered here. I am usually 5-10 minutes behind on my Twitter feed, so I jumped to their timeline to find out I had won. Happy days, I was starting to think I was going to miss @BlogWorld completely.
After work we swung by San Gennaro and grabbed some subs and desert before calling it an early night. We are headed out to Lake Las Vegas today for the @BuckbeanBeer sponsored Village Craft Beer Fest. Hopefully I will have a few reports from their later and of course lots of Twitter updates.
Until then, arrrrr mateys.

Another Blog World Post
So I continue to try and find a way to gain entry to Blog World 09. Now from, XR.com, who request another posting.
So I thought I would just touch on a few more reasons, I really want to attend. If you check my posts from last year, you can see I attended New Media Expo. I did not get to attend the entire show, as I have a full time job. That job has nothing to do with blogging or social media.
My blogging is something I do for myself, and though I would love for it to become more than just a hobby... again my job gets in the way. So it is very frustrating when shows are expensive to attend. More so when they are in my backyard.
This year most of my trade show / convention schedule was shot down by the hopefully pending purchase of a house. It has put my life on hold for the past six months and left me with no room financially to attend much in the way of shows. Now that the house is almost a done, or not done deal I hope to get back on that horse.
Ideally I would love to start with Blog World / New Media Expo, but if it has to way until CES 2010, so be it. Anyhow, starting to ramble, thanks for your time.

Blog World 2009
So today I blog, without a thorough explanation as to my lack of blogging. It's safe to say this year has been a fail when it comes to attending the many trade shows and events I aspire to.
However, I now have the chance to redeem myself, in my own backyard, by gaining access to Blog World / New Media Expo 2009. How you may ask, why by blogging about it, or course.
BlogCatalog is giving away an full access pass and that is just what I need to get my blog jump started. So here is my post expressing my extreme desire to attend this year.
Hopefully I can win, so I can attend this year and have a lot to blog about in the near future.

Updates
So obviously I discontinued my weekly updates from Beer n Blog, and even though I have participated in several interesting events and one road trip, no updates have been forthcoming.
Basically I fail. While I am still debating whether or not to update on those events or not, I intend to keep blogging going forward. Including this week, Comic Con, the event that started this blog.
While I am unable to attend SDCC this year, I will be monitoring it and doing some blogging about the event. I am extremely upset at having to miss this year, but sometimes you have to make choices. Hopefully the choice I have made will be better for my family in the long run.
In the mean time I will also trying and knock out updates on the Whole Foods Beer Tasting we attended, the 4th of July Beer Bash at the NY NY Hotel we attended and our SoCal road trip to the beach. Also still hoping to squeak out Defcon in two weeks.

Bar Louie Night
Just a quick trip, need to add to it later... #BNBLV had a pretty damn good night at Bar Louie in Town Square. We had a few bumps, but very nice over all. We were happy with both the food and drink (prices). I think we will try it again.
