Been making preparations for DragonCon over the last few days. I have a couple more people to confirm in my rooms then I'm done. I feel like I'm traveling with an entourage. Which is BS, because I'm obviously in
thewordoffred's entourage. Or was that
saraphina_marie's? Maybe it was
ebonange's. No, it was
shadowmancer_x's entourage. That's it. Of course it's all a moot point because my heart belongs to
vvsavagevv and
gertymac. And
rangerlyn. And
sunshinedew. And
vitawash24. And Grace... and Stefani... and Rich and David... and the girl in the Black Cat costume....
I'm doomed.
I've not looked at the schedule because I'm afraid of what I might see. "What do you mean they've scheduled the Mythbusters against Firefly and against Nickie Brendan? Why does DragonCon hate me?!" More than the costumed lovelies, the parties, the guests, the shopping, the panels, and the entertainment, I'm looking forward to just being around my friends in an environment where we can just be geeks. Not parents or bosses or staff members. We get to be just fans. Except for
gertymac. She's a radiant goddess wherever she is.
This year I'll be there with new friends and old friends. I can't begin to say how wonderful it is to... Okay, I'm gushing. With all the stress and turmoil that I've 'enjoyed' since January, it will be wonderful to just be me for a while. I have a few friends who won't be able to make it. I'm sorry you can't be there to share in the fun. I'll have a drink for you. Wait, who am I kidding. I'll have that drink for me. You're just out of luck.
