I'm about to freak the fuck out...

I'm going to be in Tennessee this weekend to promote JordanCon.

See, I have this rich and elaborate fantasy life. I plan out many wonderful and beautiful things in my head. Most of them never actually get out of my head, for various reasons, most of them having to do with me having the attention span of gnat and the follow through of... I dunno. I lost interest in this sentence.

So JordanCon has been one of those things. I've been kicking it around in my head since about 2004, I think. That's a long freakin' time for me to create the perfect fantasy land con. Reality will never, ever match it. Which isn't actually a bad thing, because my fantasies tend to be as poorly thought out as my plans. But the big advantage is that nothing ever goes wrong.

I also, from long habit, keep my fantasy life extremely private or compartmentalized from the rest of my life. There's always been quite a bit on my mind that I simply don't want you, or anyone else, to know about. So taking something out of the realm of pure fantasy and putting it in reality land is very hard and anxiety inducing for me.

We're printing the flyers tomorrow. I may vomit.

jordancon, chattacon, things i should really keep to myself
