ASL’s Letter From The Editor, Lisa Timmons
State of the Blog Address
Howdy readers! That was just my attempt at conveying to you the fact that I recently returned back from a trip to Texas. My good friend, Randy, was able to coordinate a speaking engagement for me for last Friday at which I discussed advertising and marketing strategies in blogging for the Central Texas Ad League. Needless to say, it was the perfect way for us to combine business with pleasure, as my flight out there was paid for by the organization. Thanks Randy and thank-you, Central Texas Ad League!
Up until this trip, my only experience with Texas had been driving through it on my move from Savannah, Georgia to Los Angeles. Needless to say, all I remembered was that Texas was hot and seemed endless. I was looking forward to the opportunity to check it off the list as a state I can now say that I’ve visited. My first interaction came when I was in the Dallas-Fort Worth airport shuttle to my connecting flight. I was initially confused when a man asked me, “Did that hurt?” Accustomed to strangers in Los Angeles commenting on my boyfriend’s nearly full-body tattoos, I was surprised to realize that he was actually referring to my tiny nose piercing, which against the backdrop of my hipster neighborhood is all but completely invisible. Oh Texans. You’re adorable.
