It has been a torrid affair between the SBL Online Program Book and me. We had a fling back in April, but within 24 hours, she up and disappeared on me. I have been sitting by the phone waiting for her call ever since. At last, she has come back to me and we can have all the summer fun I’ve always dreamed of . . . Summer lovin’ had me a blast, summer lovin’ happened so fast! I met a schedule, crazy for me . . .
Us biblioblogging types love that online program book. As soon as it hits cyberspace, we just gobble it up as fast as can be. Perhaps we’re a little obsessive, but hey, we’re talking about the highlight of the year, right? Daniel and Tonya have begun a list of bibliobloggers who are presenting at SBL, lest the world think we’re a bunch of wannabes. The list is quite impressive, and I’m happy to make it on there this year.
I’m a bit bummed to learn that I’ve been slotted for Tuesday morning. I was holding out hope for a Monday time slot, but knew that Tuesday was a possibility. My session doesn’t look any different than when it was temporarily posted back in April. I think we have a good bunch and I’ve even had a chance to interact with Lori Baron, one of my fellow presenters, a little bit. In the coming week or so, I’ll be perusing the program book and ranking my top options (or, “toptions,” if you will) of the scheduled presentations.
SBL Program Book and bibliobloggers . . . together again. Summer days driftin’ away, to uh-oh those summer nights . . .
