Arisi... ...eh

"So this weekend is Arisia in Boston, the huge scifi con that I go to every year. It is full of neat stuff and cool ppl and all sorts of really wild stuff.

So why am I so throughly lethargic about the concept of going?

I haven't packed, I haven't even given more than a moments thought to what I'm going to pack. I haven't looked at the events schedule. Heck the only thing I have given much thought at all to is trying to decide whether to park at Alewife & T in or to try and find parking near the hotel.

Maybe it's because with SWPIA coming up last weekend, and all the time spent at the Flea (in the same hotel no less) I've burned up my energy for huge busy crowds. Maybe it's because Crest is in CA and a) I miss her and b) I wanted to spend time at arisia with her.

I'm fairly certain that once I am there I'll enjoy myself, but all the stuff leading up to actually being at the hotel I am viewing with the utmost apathy. Heck I have briefly pondered not going, except that everyone I know will be there so I'd set myself up for a very lonely weekend.

So after work today I'll pack my bags, and after work tomorrow I'll head up there. Once I'm up there a weekend spenthanging out with allmy friends should end up being good for me."

Key West

"I'm moving to Key West. Highest recorded temp there was 91 deg. Lowest recorded temp there was 41 deg.

It is 2 deg outside right now. Which is twice what yesterday's temp was."

Well feh.

"I can't help feeling that this week has consipired to keep me in a bad move. Today I got into work late due to the weather and resulting road ijits. And of course because I show up the latest I have in a while to a storethey suddenly have a pile of work that Needs To Be Done Today(tm). So I end up spending 8.5 hours there, then stop off for gas and a quick errand and don't get home til nearly 9pm.
Ick.
And I called on the apartment I and Fey looked at last week and they decided to rent ot someone else. And another place I was going to look at this evening I couldn't because I was still at work when the appointment came round.
I did manage to pack though. Got clothes and the usual bag of tricks all set. I even bought a bunch of granola bars to bring along. I can't fool my body into believeing theyare actually food, but they can manage to keep my blood sugar fluffed enough not to colapse until actual food occurs. Speaking of which, I am going to go get some food for the first time in about 11 hours."
