ConQuesT, here I come!

Wednesday: Toad Woods to Da Bronx

Thursday: LGA to MCI to ConQuesT 41. Whee!

As I just wrote to my friendly and helpful guest liaison, "I packed some yarn to donate to the Charity Auction. I packed my collection of convention badges for the special exhibit I'm putting together in the Art Show. I packed a few copies of the Annals of Improbable Research to give away."

Program items I'm on:

How to throw a room party - Friday, 6pm
Jimmy Hollaman
Diane Lacey
Geri Sullivan
Toni Weisskopf

I tried to Read it, I Really Did - Saturday, 3pm
David Lee Anderson
Sue Sinor
Geri Sullivan
Ian Tregillis

GoH Interview Thingy* - Sunday, 2pm
Diane Lacey
Geri Sullivan

Blogs and Sci-Fi - Sunday, 3pm
Geri Sullivan
Ruth Lichtwardt
Diane Lacey
Ben Yalow

Plus Opening & Closing Ceremonies, and that sort of thing.

*Formally called "Geri Sullivan: The History of Fandom, Part 2" aka "The Geography of Fandom: Minneapolis, MN CANADA, " "Fun, Desperate Fun," and "Geri'n'Diane: 2 Fans, 2 Countries, 1 Friendship"

Plus lots of other neat folks on a sweet variety of program topics.

So, a friendly wave to folks headed to WisCon, Balticon, Oasis, BayCon, Marcon, MisCon, MediaWest*Con, or any other conventions this weekend, and a great big See You Soon! to all who will be at ConQuesT!

"Well I might take a train,
I might take a plane,
But if I have to walk I'm gonna get there just the same.
I'm going to Kansas City, Kansas City here I come.
They got a crazy way of GoH-honouring there,
And I'm gonna get me some."

That we will! Ditto on the "can't wait" front.

Memorial Day weekend has an abundance of riches on the convention front.

If you can stand to miss [livejournal.com profile] carnyjack's Brunch, think about heading over to Toronto for SFContario. Yes, that weekend has conflicts, too. :-)

Quite an honorable year for you! Have a great time, and knock 'em dead!

See you tomorrow. :-) Have a safe trip!

Wow! Bon voyage.

Funny thing is, the last time I forewent (does "forego" have a past tense?) Wiscon, it _was_ to go to Toronto, for Mikecon.
