Well, it seems less and less likely that I'll be going to Gen Con this year.

After Gen Con LLC told me a week after housing registration opened, my other contacts for getting hotel space have either informed me that there's no room with them, or just won't answer my Emails.

I can't believe that I'll be breaking a 16-year run like this... how sad ( Read more... )

 Sooo, last December I was using my laptop when I got a BSD.  I restarted and it tried to boot up and found no OS.  Ever again ( Read more... )

This weekend is FCN (Furry Connection North.)  I will be there with other artist friends dogsoul  and mechanicalhyena .  I don't know if I'll be working the Artist's Alley this year, but I think they will be.  I really don't have any plans, and trying to keep it that way for now.  I'm not sure what I'll be doing, but hopefully it'll involve some drawing and good times.

Well, well, well.  We got to work and we were told, "When we finish these rooms, we leave for the night."  No moving to the next school, we just go and hit the next school on Monday.  That meant that if we got our act together and things went smoothly, we could be out in just a few hours (and because I worked 6 hours on Monday, I only needed to be ( Read more... )

1:24am (6 minutes until clock-out time) my boss comes to find me. "Are you done?" "Nope. Just one more room left (and would be done if I wasn't having to come out here and meet you...)"  "You're not done? Why aren't you done?"  "The rooms are a mess. Every desk has dust on it."
