I don’t have any Thursday sessions on my schedule. I have two good reasons for this. The first is that the few sessions that I wanted to attend were already full. The other reason is that I plan on sitting for the VCP on Thursday morning. I plan to spend whatever time I have left after that talking to vendors or visiting a friend in San Diego.
