It was not my intention to attend this year, both for reasons of cost more than anything, and also because last year was enough of a disaster it left a very bitter taste in my mouth. There's a party Friday night I've been invited to, but I'll be leaving Sac to drive there after work and not staying overnight which is a 150 mile drive each way and about 3 hours of travel time each way. That's always the problem with visiting the bay area. It's a hell of a lot of driving for me just to pop in for a couple of hours and still make it home the same day.
Couple that with the work situation and the fact my garage is still a moldy mess and I've got other things on my plate anyway. The neighbor that owns that unit showed up today and we agreed the 65 is coming out of the garage on Sunday. The car is not running as I stopped working on it as soon as I saw the black mold on the ceiling. So next weekend we're either pushing the car into a neighboring garage or I'll hand it off to a local garage to put the motor back together.
Have fun at the con. I might stop in Friday night, but I wouldn't count on it.
This would've been my 10th FC in a row, although I ghosted one year already so that doesn't count eh?
