(no subject)
Last night after work I went over to the GMU Aquatics Center to have a healthy small meet with some other area furs. When I first located the others (the place is really big), kurradragon and Furio (don't know if he's on LJ) were stretching in the hallway. Later, Midnightwolf (not the LJ user midnightwolf98) arrived with Wyndchaser. We all swam a lot, and I and Furrio hit the exercise machines upstairs. We (less Kurra) went to Denny's. Denny's was without water and not a great experience.
But the main thing is I've started some exercise. If the GMU center actually offered an annual pass, I'd buy that once I got a car. If not, there's still Audrey Moore county rec center with an indoor heated pool.
Thursday I fly out to Chicago. I arrive fairly late, but I'll be there until Sunday evening. I plan on attending a lot of the writing program, and I've also volunteered to be a "Carny", for the theme of the con is "County Fair."
If I know you but it has been quite a while (and it has for most non-DC area furs), I'm sorry if I might not recognize you -- it has been two years since I made MFF, and longer for some other cons. Even Feral has been like 14.5 months ago. I have a poor memory, especially for folks I don't see but very rarely. (I was thinking of posting this warning even before I saw that animist had posted something similar in his LJ. :-) EDIT: Oddly, on editing it has now allowed me to set the user pic for this post!
PS -- I'm using the web client to post this, and it isn't letting me change the friggin' icon, I wanted one other than the default. This might have to do with restoring an interrupted post which was saved automatically (Ubuntu froze up on an attempt to spell check).
