At Worldcon, and having a blast. I’ve done some filking, hung around in consuite, went to a panel, trolled the dealer’s room, partied with folks who want to have a Worldcon in a bleak post-nuclear wasteland and have already spent too much money. And it’s only Thursday.
(But that’s okay!)
Also, I nearly took John Scalzi out with my backpack in the reg line. The best part is? When I did that, I didn’t realize it was Scalzi. (Imagine my surprise when the nice dude behind me who’s been cool about the backpack thing walks up to the reg table (while I’ve got my badge and am waiting for the goodie bag) and says “I’m John Scalzi.”)
Yeah. I’m having a blast. Wish you all were here.
Anyway, there are other things I ought to be doing other than hanging out on the computer, so I’m going to do them. See you all later!
Awesomeness! (Though I don’t know who that guy is.)
I’ve been having fun because I am getting around to logging snarfs that you logged years ago, and your blue dice keeps popping up :)
John Scalzi’s a science fiction writer who just won the Hugo for best fanwriter. (Although he wasn’t a Hugo winner when this happened…) He wrote Old Man’s War and its sequels, and maintains a highly popular blog at Whatever.
And yeah, I forgot BluDice on this trip, but I didn’t have a ton of time for snarfing either. It seemed like every other building on the 16th Street Mall had a plaque on it. :)
