There’s No Place Like Home!

July 20, 2014 21 Comments

PictureBobby and Me at NAMM

We are back! And it sure is nice. My husband and I have been in Nashville for the past three days for the Summer NAMM Show – a trade show and conference for the music industry. It was a blast! We went to lots of classes on how to improve our website, increase our social media presence, market ourselves as musicians, increase our student base, and much more. We also got to check out all kinds of neat products. We might have come home with a few new music toys…  ;) 

One of the cool things about all that we learned in the classes (like the website and social media classes) is that a lot of it can be applied to Kitty Cat Chronicles! While most of what we learned was specific to the music industry, much of it was general advice on search engine optimization, getting found on Google, and stuff like that. I can’t wait to start putting it all into practice for The Halls of Music AND Kitty Cat Chronicles! 

Oh, and I forgot to mention – the conference was at the Music City Center — the same place that BlogPaws is going to be held in May! While at the show, I couldn’t help but picture all of the people walking around with their pets and imagining how awesome BlogPaws is going to be next year! Plus, I now know of a few great places to eat and neat places to go to check out live music. We saw so many talented musicians!!! I hope that some of my pet-blogging buddies will enjoy going out and checking out the music scene with me next year!

My new drum set!!!! …. just kidding. But a girl can dream, right? πŸ˜‰

While we had a great time at the show, I’m not going to lie… I missed the kitties like crazy. I couldn’t wait to get home and snuggle and play with them. They sure were glad to see us when we got home last night too. Sassy hogged my pillow all night, but I didn’t care. It was nice to have a sweet purring kitty to cuddle with. They have all been extra lovey, so I am in heaven. I think I’ll be spending my Easy Sunday lounging on the couch with all of the kitties!

Sampson says, “I sure did miss you guys. I think I’ll sit in your lap now and never get up.”

P.S. I heard that these guys threw a rowdy pawty while we were away. They did a pretty good job cleaning up after themselves! Thanks to everyone that stopped by. We hear it was a great time!

    Sounds like a great time! We’ve never been to Nashville. I think BlogPaws is there next year, so maybe we’ll have a chance to go!
    Thank you so much for the sweet birthday wishes for Glogirly and helping to make our comment-a-thon a huge success!

    Wow, looks like you had a fun time. And a sneak preview. But it’s always good to be back home.
    I’ve been voting for you in the Petties, and will continue to right through to the end. Good luck!

    It sounds like y’all got the house cleaned up before your humans got home. Good work! We sure had a great time dancing on the ceiling at the party. Looks like you have the best seat in the house now, Sampson. Mom thinks that is great that Mom Emily got to see where BlogPaws is going to be next year and scout out good places to go. Sounds as if they had a good time but really missed y’all. Astrid is sending Sampson a boat load of kisses. .Please join us Monday for our 2nd blogoversary and giveaway.

    That sounds like a really fun event, and it’s great that the things you learned can be applied to both your music and to cat blogging too! How cool that it was held where BlogPaws will be next year. The head peep would love to check out the music scene while she’s there, though she discovered at BlogPaws this year that BlogPaws itself kept her busy from morning to night.

    You look like you had a ton of fun! (Of course, we don’t necessarily think that’s any excuse for abandoning the poor, desperate, starving kitties, of course….)
    And hey, you look like you are still in high school yourself, says my Human who is a high school teacher!

    It sounds like you had a blast in Nashville. I bet blog paws will be lots of fun next year. Your fur kids did not have a party while you were gone. There were some rumors going around about a wild house trashing party at your house. The pictures are fake. It never happened. Love, Cali, Andy, Tater and Shelly (C.A.T.S)
