Off to Denvention

...first thing in the morning so trying to clean up a few things before leaving (like my so-called desk and the couch) so that my house/catsitter has room to move.

I may add more to this if I have time...if not, adios and see you back here Sunday night or Monday.

Enjoy and have a safe trip!

[ellen-datlow.livejournal.com]

Thanks. I'll have less leisure time than I'd thought, being very booked up (with enjoyable things but still....) the most exhausting I'm thinking will be the "walk with the stars" jaunt Thursday am. ugh.

[charlesatan.livejournal.com]

Go caffeine! And I guess that means sleeping early the night before...

[ellen-datlow.livejournal.com]

Just tomorrow night and there shouldn't be much going on the first night (which is why I committed to the early walk on Thursday :-) )

[foresthouse.livejournal.com]

Have fun! My friends Lee and Anna will be there (also part of the Discworld Con committee) and I told them about the walk things, but who knows if they'll be able to get up that early. *g* I don't know if I would be. Heh.

I'm a little worried about the heat and the altitude but presumably at 9-10 am it won't be tooooo hot.

[foresthouse.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I think Denver can be quite nice around then, if I recall correctly. Anyway, bring sunscreen and stuff just in case!!

Oh, I lose at things. There I go logging in as one of my alternate personalities again. :) (I'm not really schizophrenic, I swear!) Sorry about that!

I was wondering about that delete post :-)

You just reminded me to bring a hat!!! I'll thrown it in my bag right now.

[foresthouse.livejournal.com]

Yes! This is what my dad always tells me: "Don't forget your hat! You don't want a sunburned scalp!" Heh.

You know, back in the day when things were simple, I had ONE journal. But now I also have one where I post the official NADWCon updates, and one where I'm sort-of-role-playing a comic book character (people write in with questions and I answer in character; yes, it's probably as weird as it sounds), and...dear me. I really should stop, or I'm not going to be able to keep track anymore!

[ellen-datlow.livejournal.com]

It sounds like fun!

[foresthouse.livejournal.com]

Heh, it is for me and the, like, 27 people who read it. :) Not that many people know the character (Deadpool) who is one of the less well known guys in the Marvel universe. He's known for his off-the-wall craziness and black humor, so it's fun writing some of that.

Although after the Wolverine: Origins movie comes out, more people will know who he is, I bet, since he's one of the "team" from Weapon X. I just keep hoping they'll do him justice.

It hasn't been too bad--but I've been up in the mountains.

Tonight in Aspen it's in the 50s-60s and raining, pretty steadily. Enough to make me think I'm back in Portland.

However, local forecast is that it's supposed to be a more seasonal 80s instead of the 90s/100s it's been since I got here on Friday.

Try to have fun! :)

[ellen-datlow.livejournal.com]

I'm sure it'll be very difficult, but I'll manage ;-)

[melissajm.livejournal.com]

Have a good time!

[chris-reynaga.livejournal.com]

Have a great time! Say hi to Leslie over at the Clarion West display.

safe journeys

[themadblonde]

Any chance of seeing you in the next week? I'm going to MTL on the 17th, and only have w/es and Labour Day after that.

Oops. That was me.
