Boob squeezing

[frostokovich]

Okay, I'm in the deli line taking a number to squeeze Harlan's boobs. Just hope he's not wearing a man-siere. Or dynamite sticks wrapped around his middle.
And at it's after 4 here in my office, I'm opening The Macallans. Anyone else feel the need ta get steamin'?

Slainte!
GF (who feels he should be one of the honorary GoH's at Bittercon since they didn't put 'is bleedin' short fiction collection on the effing WFC ballot)

It's not a man-siere, it's a "bro"!

Yeah, I think my icon says it's time....

Drambuie with hot tea if you're tending bar, Frost. I'll go sit by the fire and chat while I wait for my drink.

In all fairness, I got the banner from clarkesworld - although I don't know if he made it or not. I'm just FILLED WITH SWEET SWEET BITTERNESS because I didn't come up with it first.

Where's Harlan? I need to squeeze a man-boob!!!

The more better the bitter.

Hey, wow! We have con updates, just like a worldcon. Now all we need to do is have them come out in teeny, weeny fonts that no one can read without a magnifying glass.

I'm bitter, because:

a) I was supposed to go to WFC, but couldn't afford it because:
b) I work at a non-profit homeless shelter where:
c) I am working 8 overnights in a row just to:
d) pay my over-due house payment so I don't end up:
e) living in a homeless shelter.
All while a bunch of my friends are off drinking at the bar or parties and celebrating fantastic fiction.

I am soooooo bitter.

[sallytuppence]

Ow. This is right up there with oral surgery.

[birdhousefrog]

Ok, not affording WFC is very bitter-making. It's the reason I'm not there as well, though deadcities' reason beats mine. My clients just didn't pay me soon enough to have the funds for airfare and hotel.

I think the party last night shut down livejournal. That's my story and I'm sticking to it. I have a very grundgy mouth this morning, as if I had been drinking, though I don't remember it. Could also be the cold I have. Bet they don't have colds in Austin.
