Of Cons and StanLee

Jul 21, 2008 08:30

The weekend was actually pretty relaxed, but not as boring as the last few. I did not get anywhere on my goals, but I did relax rather than spend my time upset about being stuck at home.

Friday and Saturday I watched all the Avatar: The Last Air Bender episodes I recorded during the every episode marathon last week and watched the finale Saturday. I am so glad I did. It was almost a spiritual experience at times.

I got my house cleaned and realized no matter how much I can't afford it, I have to clean the carpet...I can't afford not to, if I am going to get a roommate or sell the house. Though, I think that I may just have to give it up rather than sell. All the homes currently up for sale in my neighborhood have been up for sale for 6 months or more.

I looked, but cannot find anything less expensive as far as housing goes. An apt might work if I could get past the pet fees.

Sunday after I finished cleaning, I took StanLee to Petsmart and he used his $5 gift card to get a fleece ball. I don't recall if I mentioned he won a cutest puppy contest.

StanLee has not had an accident in a week! He sits pretty good for me, though I have struggled to teach him anything else, as once he sees the treat, he goes spastic on me.

Looks like there may have been a misunderstanding at the Dragon*Con staff meeting. According to the Volunteer Director, I am on the list for my new staff. I emailed my director to confirm one way or another. I am now waiting on some room share prices and also to hear about possibly a free room for playing party monitor...I tried this a couple of times and have not made the cut yet, so we will see.

I have started making plans for Frolicon, which is the one I am most excited about. Hopefully, Pam will let me come back after the incident this year. I did not get to complete my hours. I was not too happy about that myself. I will be reserving my room(s) next month and have started planning a party for the party and concoction contests if they have them....The Boozepack were the only ones to sign up last year. I will likely be looking for a few people to help with the party in exchange for some sleep space in the party room. If any of you have a great music collection and want to assist with music, I might even buy you a pass for the Con.
