god job~ get 'em up way high~
last night, dreamt of: having like, 5 dogs (3 little ones, and 2 bigger ones); being miniaturized and tracked by my squirrel sidekick; gay, english speaking yamapi in my hotel bed and us working out a deal where i'd be a temporary beard; having my flower shop swamped by little high-school age brats who were on the nikki's dreamland version of a trip to nyc and thought that 'closed' signs didn't apply to them if they could sneak in the back garden.
the conference was mostly fun today. I like registering people (the first day) because it's never quite slow, but it's not too crazy. You get to smile and get people their shit and tell them where to find the bathrooms and the talks. I did hit a point where it was like 'ok, leave me the fuck alone now, you can do this by yourself' but that was mostly to the people i was working registration with.
I had to get up at 6 this morning to get there on time, and that was pretty awful. i even went to bed an hour early last night :(
and i'll have to go to bed in like 30 minutes to do the same tomorrow. so not pleased.
but yeah, conference isn't bad, and even if it was a 10 hour day today, it wasn't a hard 10 hours. the hotel's gorgeous (it's the Renaissance, which is the same one Elaine stayed at for her conference last february when she visted me). plus there's a lot of free food. I had shao long bao zhi because i was in chinatown anyway, so might as well, but really i didn't even need to. the juice is fantabulous.
so yeah, night.
