Show scheduling
This post is mostly for my own reference, but if any of my fellow local congoers would like to let me know any I've missed, it would be appreciated.
I'm looking to expand my conventions I attend and/or sell things at. So, I'm making a little calendar of local events (and ones I'll travel to) for myself. I'll edit as I check out what is or isn't still available. I want to go to more conventions, darn it!
- January 18th-20th - MarsCon, Hampton Roads, VA - already past
- April 25th - 27th - RavenCon, Richmond, VA - I'll be shocked if they have room, but I'm emailing anyway

Katsucon is usually the same weekend as Farpoint, so I'd have to decide. Next year's info for Katsu is not yet posted.
4/24/08 - Updated the status of a couple of shows. I got space at Shore Leave!
On a random note, I had an...odd dream last night. And let me just state for the record that I think it's perfectly reasonable to be whiney and complain that you don't feel good when you're a disembodied spirit standing next to your shot and beheaded body that might or might not recover. (Yup, that's what was going on in my head when my alarm went off this morning.)
