You're Going to the Convention? You're Popular!

I notice that both my email box and my snail mail box are filled with invitations. Each days brings a a few invitations for what sound like spectacular and inspiring pre/during/and post convention events.
Last week, the invites were coming at the rate of about one/day. And, today, only 5 days from departure, the invite delivery rate has ramped up to 6 invitations!  Some of the invitations are arriving in beautiful envelopes, same as a "save the postage" post cards, and other as email invitations, attending everything will definitely fill every day. Some of the events are free. Some not. Some more preferred and already sold-out like the Emily's list event with a 400 person waiting list featuring Nancy Pelosi, Michelle Obama and Hillary Clinton (so far, I'm not "in"...but I'm working on it!).
Other invites include: Melissa Etheridge- headlining the "Rock to Win" concert; "A salute to American Veterans"; and the Opening NIght Reception at the Red Rock Amphitheater. 
You can see that receiving so many invitations could make a girl  feel popular!
