DragonCon in T-24. Panicking now.

Last week I breezily assured myself that there was plenty of time to panic before DragonCon. And then, y’know, we had an earthquake and a hurricane thing going on*, and suddenly whee! it’s time to panic!

I’m getting in Thursday night, and leaving Sunday, and things are kind of packed in-between. I hope to see you there! (and feel free to stop me and say hi. I may be slightly discombobulated at first, but that’s just, y’know…sleep dep.)
