Back from Bal'mor'
Nov. 30th, 2008 10:30 pm1) DarkoverCon was awesome. It made Browncoat Ball look very bland. I met loads of people, heard cool stories, and got to walk around with this huge "SPEAKER" ribbon on my nametag that I started covering up with my jacket because people kept looking at me oddly trying to figure out who the hell I was.
Example:
Random con-attendee: I know you! Where do I know you from?
Me: I have no idea.
RCA: Have you published anything?
Me: Well yes, but you probably--
RCA: Oh, what?
Me: Well I published a study in Performance Metrics and Measurements, and I have an article coming out in Journal of the Fantastic in the Arts...
RCA: ...I guess I haven't heard of you after all.
Etc. Yeah.
2) Christmas plans will be forthcoming soon, I swear.
