Don't forget to register for CONvergence. If you register early you get a break on the rate. Details at their site.
For those who don't now, CONvergence is the largest fan run fantasy and science fiction convention, and it is held in the Twin Cities at or near the 4th of July. And, even better, every year for the last several years, Skepchick has organized a bunch of panels at The CON on skepticism, science and stuff, and for the last few years I've been invited to be on some of those panels, and have helped organize. Last Year Free Thought Blogs joined with Skepchick so some of those bloggers came as well.
I'm hoping to see you there! (Depending on who you are, of course.)
Anyway, get your tickets.

Last Fourth of July Weekend, I attended Skepchicon, which is a "track" at a "con" (where a con is a thing where everyone dresses up like Darth Vader or a Twilight character or whatever). I was on the panel for a couple of sessions and participated in others, and had a blast.
I adore your wp theme, where would you get a hold of it through?
I believe it was a creation of National Geographic.
