Revelation and updates
Sep. 5th, 2004 11:28 amEDITED 11:55 AM to update some of the updates.]
The revelation is this: I should not try to do anything complicated on the Sunday of a Worldcon. Like paying attention to panels. Or watching the Masquerade. Basically, after the Hugos, it's all downhill for me.
Updates:
The latest number of the Triplanetary Gazette (the con newsletter) said CONGRATUTIONS [sic] TO NIPPON! So the 2007 Worldcon will, as we suspected, be going to Yokohama after all. At least Columbus has a shot at hosting the NASFiC. At the Lord of the Rings Exhibit, there was an albino who looked a lot like my Mississippi friend Virginia Smith, but who recognized neither my face nor my name. She has, however, heightened the resemblance by carrying around a large plushie of her own making. Ginny's plushie was Edward Scissorhands; this albino has a working puppet!Angel (no game face, sad to say). There was something else when I got here, I know there was. That's how tired I am. It's not you, it's me. Okay, there's something to go here now. I saw the Rincewind cosplayer my mom told me about the other night. Okay, he was carrying his costume folded up in his arms, but I saw him, and (actually before I saw him) I saw his remote-controlled Luggage.

Sep. 5th, 2004 05:18 pmNeither parent showed up to wait on/in line with me and get Pterry's autograph on stuff. He'll be doing more signing tomorrow, but I have to admit, I share the parental view that getting on the road is probably a more worthwhile endeavor on the larger scale.
And Dad's even blowing off his 5 o'clock panel, the one we were supposed to meet him after to make the pilgrimage to dinner. Obviously, we're all tired. Maybe we all need to stop trying to do real attendance after the Hugos.
