A Day for Getting Things Ready and Making Con Plans

Since I'll be very short on time for anything but running around getting things ready for our out of town guests (one of whom, Avis, is here already to help out, what with "travel time" being pretty much meaningless to her) arrival tomorrow and the big barbecue bash on Saturday. Mmmm...barbecue...pig in the ground tomorrow night, baby!

Anyway, I have a few minutes for answering email (which I am days behind on) and making a couple of notes here...

1. Sin has found a bunch of my old web postings from just after the Change, so I'll be putting them up on here from time to time. Looks like they are mostly from the day before Change Day up to a couple of days after Halloween, 1999.
2. Grace and I have our con schedule laid out and it looks like this...

Spring SacCon (Sacramento): May 1-3 I'll be there straight through from Saturday morning through Monday afternoon, plus the Friday Night Pre-Con party. Grace will be there from Sunday morning on.

Denver Gamefest (Denver, Colorado): May 13-15 The whole family (Grace, Lily, Roscoe & I) will be there.

QuestCon (San Francisco, California): June 2-5 Roscoe & I will be there.

Kaiju Con (Tokyo, Japan): June 17-19 (The whole family, plus several friends)

Origins (Baltimore, Maryland): July 1-4 (The whole family, plus Joneses)

ArcataCon (Arcata, California): July 22-24 (Just me)

AdventureCon 10 (Cork, Ireland): August 5-7 (The whole family, plus friends)

WebCon7 (London, England): August 20-21 (I'll be at the live portion in London, but connected to the estimated 3 MILLION attendees worldwide via the internet and Dream Draught)

GenCon (Milwaukee, Wisconsin): August 24-28 (The whole family at the bestest con EVER!)

WorldCon (Seattle, Washington): September 1-5 (The whole family, though Grace will be leaving on Saturday afternoon on Green Lady business)

WHEW! Whole lotta conning & traveling there.
