I registered for con.txt today, and now I'm all excited. I've got the whole week before off from work, so I can have an actual vacation and then head down to hang out. I haven't gone anywhere for vacation in forever, and I've never been to anything like this, so yeah. Excited.

And, eee, I just looked at the membership list and I'm even more excited! People I see regularly and love hanging out with! People I haven't seen in forever! People I've been dying to meet! People I have never heard of, but in relatively small numbers! And in only 4 months!

/happy overuse of exclamation points

I also registered over the weekend for VVC but, um, yeah, totally wait-listed. This is not a problem, I figure, because I have the week before that off from work too. I'll just go visit [livejournal.com profile] merryish whether she wants me to or not, and have a Hooters/Grave Danger picnic with [livejournal.com profile] dsudis and generally make a pest of myself. I think this is an excellent plan. :)

eeeeee!

Sweet. I hadn't looked at the attendance list since I signed up.

Seriously. I'm torn, by my badge name is going to be "Nora Bombay". I figure it's a lot easier than introducing myself as my actual name, and then with a "nora bombay? Lj?"

I really should book a hotel room. I don't know why I pretend I'm commuting...

LOL. Pretending 'cause you know it would be cheaper? If I lived within reasonable driving distance, I'd be pretending I want to commute, too. Alas, an 18hr drive or whatever it'll work out to be, kind of hard to do back and forth. *grins* Still, either way, lots of fun!

I live in Alexandria.
It's about 45 min from Silver Spring- SS is the top of the beltway.

I live at the bottom.

I'm probably going to get a hotel room for a night or two, but I have no plans to take a day off work, so I'll just commute in those days.

Maybe.

I'm still wibbling over whether con.txt is doable for me.

Four months is not a lot of time left for wibbling! I say go for it! but of course just because I now want everyone to come play. ;-)

Well, that came out a little wrong--not JUST because. *grins*

I'm registered for con.txt but am unsure of finances, so I totally support you coming to Chicago!

LOL. Chicago--I REALLY want to go to VVC so I'm hoping I'm not like, dead last on the wait list, but I seriously just want to go visiting, so. Yes! But I hope that finances pan out and you get to come to con.txt, too! :)

I'm excited too, still. It'll be a blast. And who knows, maybe in DC we'll actually get to have a conversation--that will rock! *grins*

Heeheeheeheehee

I think we're driving down on Thursday and staying through 'til Monday ... unless Beth has a class she can't get out of. (Hmm. I should check on that.) So there should be time for a conversation .... *g*

(At cons, I generaly go into what I call "I'm talking and I can't shut up" mode. You'll see.)

I hope we'll get a chance to finally meet at con.txt. It's, oh, 10 minutes from my house, but I still don't know if I'm going to be able to go other than to hang out in the hotel on Saturday night.
