BEA, schmEA

I’m not at BEA this year (don’t cry for me, I’m going to ALA in a few weeks), so I’ve been living it vicariously through Twitter, and I wasn’t missing Javitz or the crowds or the stupid name badges, but then Steve Brezenoff posted this:

Carrie Jones, Ilsa Bick, and Kate Hosford are also making the annual pilgrimage to nobody’s favorite part of Manhattan. I look forward to their pizz—I mean pictures.
