kyburgWork going well today - which I'll take. I also have to account for LJ being less than busy as well...could it be that Comic Con is in town?
I was looking at post after squee after "see ya" thinking 'wow, that would be awesome' - until my higher functions kicked in and started making a count.
There's no way.
Then I remembered the last time I tried to do that show. It was epic - and expensive. And stressful to the nines. Packed doesn't begin to express the stress. The crowds were so dense and hard to navigate, Jim about killed himself running into a fire hydrant he couldn't see below his waist.
Expensive. Oh, and where we could find hotel space? Do the words Sea World mean anything to you? BEYOND THAT.
We ended up in the cutest little motel right on the bay...in the middle of a residential neighborhood. Had poured stoneware tile floors, rag rugs...echoed like the dickens....but cute! Real cute! And less than $250 a night! BARGAIN.
That was years ago now. I gave up. I gave up on this attending this year in March.
I'm just not that dedicated - and I guess my bias also is showing. If I'm not working, I'm not happy at shows anymore.
Y'all have a blast.
...
Tomorrow, I am going to the farmer's market, hit some yard sales and play Sims. And do housework, and try to resolve the last of the paperwork that doesn't require someone else's input.
Sis has already made plans for the baby shower - anyone want in? October 11th - and she's talking about chocolate and dragons, ought to make a really nice time....
Fund raising. I need to think about fund raising again.
Yay Friday. I'm going for a walk.
