Alas....

Reality has conferred with Common Sense, and murdered ButIWanna in her sleep.

No Necon for me this year.


*sobs into her pillow*


(figures: I move two hours closer, driving-wise, and don't go)


Next year. Absolutely.

It just won't be the same without you!

Bummer. I hear you.

I feel your pain. This year I realized I MUST cut out ALL orders from amazon.com and quickly toss ALL the clothing catalogs I get in the mail. No new car and no trips to Vegas.

But still WorldCon, yes?

[lagilman]

That's still the plan, all other crisis and chaos willing...

What, not even one day daytripping Necon?!

[lagilman]

You can't really day-trip Necon....

You can't really day-trip Necon....

I've done that a number of times, though. I can't really remember ever having stayed overnight at "Camp Necon."

[lagilman]

if you're only there during the day, then you've missed most of camp!

(Also, I wouldn't feel comfortable not paying the membership, and they haven't offered a per-day in...well, for as long as I can recall. Someone with a better memory wnt to chime in?)

I and two other people whose car it was was that I drove down in, daytripped on Saturday last year. There have probably only been a handful or so of people who ever have had day memberships, it's not at all typical.
