Just because I haven’t said much, don’t assume there’s not a lot going on 🙂 The last few days have been spent in pre-convention stress mode before Anthrocon. I’ve printed up all the forms, handouts, and MFF flyers we’re going to need and we’ve been working on a packing list for everything that we’re going to cram into Dan’s Element. Naturally, work hit me with a big deadline so the last few days here have been unpleasantly stressful, but that’s past and even though I’m still here, my brain has already left for vacation.
The biggest problem I have right now is insomnia – the past two nights I’ve woken up at 3:30 AM; Monday morning I was able to get back to sleep, but this morning I finally said t’heck with it and got up at 4 AM to check e-mail and such. I’m sure I’ll be paying for it later tonight, but at least I got some stuff taken care of before coming into work at 6 AM. I just chugged down a Monster, so I expect jitters to start soon.
As for tonight, I need to pick up some boxes for sorting receipts in Artists Alley and then make a stop by the grocery store for last-minute supplies. Then it’s back home to start packing and run a last load of laundry. We’ll be up at 5 AM tomorrow morning (if not before) to hit the road to Pittsburgh. It should be an easy drive out of town, and we should arrive there before rush hour. Then it’s a couple of meetings, and hopefully a chance to grab some dinner in between.
Hope to see many of you in Pittsburgh at some point this weekend!
Safe Travels!
Thanks! No AC for you? I thought you were planning a get-together with a few certain people?
I was hoping, but Husker wasn’t able to make it. And so, since I’d basically have to charge the entire trip if I went, it simply doesn’t make fiscal sense.
Instead, I shall have to while away the weekend sipping cocktails on the boat. I must admit though, It doesn’t lessen the fact that I’m suffering from pre-post-con depression. *sighs*
Aww, phooey. I’m sorry to hear that! Still, financially it’s probably a good call. There’s always MFF!
I’ve got room in the van if you want to leave Thursday morning and come back sometime on Monday evening. Floor space at my hotel 13 miles from con too if it helps.
*Glares*
How DARE you tempt me like that!!!
Unfortunately, I’m swamped here at work, taking one day off, much less three, is simply not an option. Otherwise I’d give this some serious consideration.
Thanks anyway!
When I read your subject line, suddenly I had an image of you and Takaza as Patsy and Edina exiting the limo and saying “Don’t panic! Don’t panic!”
Sorry.
Have a safe and fun trip. 🙂
