If you really want to give up your membership and hotel reservation to WorldCon, I'll take them off your hands. :)

[lagilman]

you're top of the to-call list. I should know in a week or so, if that's okay?

[earthgoat.livejournal.com]

That would be more than ok! Thank you!

If you end up cancelling WFC and already have a room in the main hotel, I may know someone who would like it.

[lagilman]

no hotel room -- I had a feeling WFC was going to be sacrificed to the crazy schedule gods this year, so didn't make advance plans...

[ellen-datlow.livejournal.com]

I just remembered that he might have gotten a room on his own. once I showed him where to look on the site.

Here, have some caffeine. Or morphine.

I'll be over here, sending next chunk of UJB to my wip readers and getting started on These Dreams.

Oy.

Sure, it's an insane schedule, but isn't it great that you've got so much to write?

You've worked so hard for your success, and I'm very proud of you. Er, not in a creepy pseudo-maternal way or anything, but just proud to know you sort of thing.

*checking schedule* Hey! I'll actually be at Balticon this year. Awesome.

0_0 you are a bizeh woman. I will now telepathically send you some energy, since you need it MUCH more than I do. ::energy beam go!:: hehe.

Where are you headed for the research trip?

[lagilman]

If it all pans out -- France. Specifically, Burgundy, with a side trip north to Lille and then points east, depending on how indulgent my cat-sitters are....


(Burgundy vs Denver? It really wasn't ALL that much of a choice...)

If Earthgoat doesn't manage the deal, let me know. :)

I keep telling myself to take a vacation this year and keep not doing it.
