Stars, Peppermills, Tridents, and More

[gerisullivan]

On Thursday, I shipped several boxes of party supplies to judith_dascoyne and Mitch's home in Boulder. They will be joining the many more boxes that started showing up this week. aisb23, our committee member who works in Reno, sent the very first box to arrive. We didn't plan it that way, but it seems only fitting. Reps from the Reno-Sparks Convention and Visitors Bureau and both of our hotels are sending goodies in support of the bid and are also coming to Denver themselves. That'll be fun.

And then there are boxes and boxes of flyers, forms, stickers, and party surprises, all ordered online. I love the internet.

All of this is of course in support of the Reno in 2011 bid parties we're running all 4 nights of the Worldcon. The Biggest Little Party at the Worldcon hopes everyone at Denvention 3 will come and taste the fun Reno has to offer:

Wednesday: Silver Mine Rush
Thursday: Around the World -- and to the Stars!
Friday: Peppermill Spice Night
Saturday: Atlantis Night

The Reno in 2011 party suite will be on the 22nd floor of the Sheraton Denver. I look forward to seeing lots of LJ friends there. If you'd like to help out, please drop me a note or give me a call. And if you have a pepper mill you'd like to show off, or even donate to the cause, please, bring it along to Denvention 3 and to the Peppermill Spice Night party on Friday. Pack your spicy clothes for that one, too. My corset fits even better than when I bought it at ConJosé. (elainebrennan, I'm counting on you to lace me up!)

I won't be in Denver, but virtual cheers!

(By the way, if Reno is the Biggest Little City in the World, then the Littlest Big City, at least in the U.S., is Winston-Salem, N.C. Just so you know.)

What happens if, having seen an actual Worldcon, their faces turn white and they start having second thoughts about 'all that crazy Buck Rodgers stuff'? <g> Or are they made of sterner stuff than that?

Grin. Sterner stuff, I trust, and if not, well, better we all learn that sooner than later, right?

I sent a bunch of pictures showing some of the bizarre stuff I'm bringing, just to help a bit with preparation and acclimation. Tanna sent me pictures of the fun stuff they found in their closet in return. Yep, our kind of people, all right. And just think what it will be like when they discover the wonder of the Worldcon. That's what I'm looking forward to.

Wish I could be there. Dammit.

Dammit, dammit, dammit, dammit, dammit.
