chanter1944 | WisCon weekend is a go!

It is so incredibly nice to be able to go to whichever panels, readings, parties, or other events you want, but then catch the city bus home, shower in your own shower, and sleep in your own bed. It's doubly nice when you can settle the two plants (one red geranium, one unknown volunteer who may be in the mint family) in on your balcony with very little fuss, save the fact that one corner of a copy of All Systems Red somehow got buried in wet soil on the trip home...! That book is now standing fanned out on my desk, and will stay there overnight. I sincerely hope it dries out with zero damage to the text. It's not for me! I have no desire to give a friend damaged books! Yikes!

So far, I've adopted those two plants (the unknown possibly-mint is Odo, because talk about your embodiment of Odo'Ital, while the geranium is Leeta, the often-underestimated pretty face) from the Gathering in a swap for two bottles of nail polish, spent too much in the dealers' room with no regrets whatsoever, chatted up a storm with friends old and new, drank too much caffeine, and ducked in and out of a couple Zoom panels. I already know tomorrow is going to be extremely busy, between panels, readings, the haiku earring party, and the Martha Wells book signing, not to mention trying to get writing time in.

Whew!
