I'm In!

What happened with World Fantasy Convention is simultaneously simple and inexplicable. My regular e-mail address - which is a working e-mail address on which I have received things as recently as today - bounced. Twice. They finally reached me on the query I sent yesterday via Gmail. But they've wanted me in all along.

There are days I hate e-mail.

Anyhow, I'll be sending them the forms at minimum by tomorrow evening.

Happy Lenora.

I've also had an invite to 1000 Miles Apart, the ceramics convention that we hosted last year. This year, it's in Regina. At the start of October, as WFC is at the end. The Professor will be going (He has, by his own description a diesel/vegetable oil van that seats 14, and there are only 5 in my class), so it won't count as missed class time, which makes me moderately tempted. Although I may refuse just so I have the free studio time. (Also so I don't have a motel fee.)

However, our professor is explicit that, as the Majors class, we should send work for the show even if we don't go ourselves.

For some reason, I keep thinking about sending some of my nicer mugs, not my figure work. Is it because it's fragile? Because Comiccon is immediately after, and WFC after that? Or because I like my mugs?

I need to open up ALL my boxes of pottery and scan them over again, and see what all I have in there. (The figures are sitting in our living room, not in boxes, but there are a lot of plates and mugs and bowls I've half-forgotten.)


Anyhow. I must to choir.

I'm excited for you!

I knew I liked you for a reason. That made me laugh.

(Though it does also make it sound like if anyone comes near me who's allergic to win, they have a chance of falling over dead.)

Thanks. It's not me that's made of awesome, though; just the pottery. Still, SQuee!

Double Hurray!! And I think you should go to Regina! And send the sea monster at least!

Of course you'd say so; you're one of the few people in the world who likes Regina. ;)

Aside from the people who live there, and the people who wish they did, of course.

Apparantly, Colin thinks I should go to Regina, too, and he's the money around here.

Who said I liked Regina? I like Saskatoon - some of my most fun times when I was at university there. I spent one of the worst summers of my life in Regina - its hotter and windier than Winnipeg! But you should get your work seen and network and all that stuff; that's why you should go.

Are you taking my teasing too literally? AH, so that's where I get that habit from...

Wonderful news!

I'll tell Chris Q. because I think he'll want to know.

And I agree with your mom. You should go to Regina. Absolutely should.

You probably found out that Chris and I have already been e-mailing, but thanks for the thought anyhow.

The main issues with going to Regina are lost work time and cost, and since Colin is encouraging me to go (And reminded me there's a hostel there, much cheaper), cost is likely to be less of a problem than otherwise. I had fun at the conference that happened in Winnipeg, and likely will again.
