Afternoons at Dragon*Con

I'm glad that someone on the [livejournal.com profile] dragon_con community enjoyed [livejournal.com profile] reannon's party last night. It was good fun.

Some things we learned:
-Fog machines set of smoke detectors. Smoke by any other name...
-Beware of women with raspy voices and big sticks.
-Cosmetic contact lenses are fun.

Today I was a little sluggish getting up. I slept pretty (shocking!) soundly until around 8am this morning. I learned the downside of having dibs on the rollaway bed near the magnificent view of downtown Atlanta. Sun. O cheerfully cruel orb that exacts vengeance on a silly con-goer who kept telling the bartender to "surprise her" drink after drink after drink. After I slowly banished the fog that was hovering in my skull and over my eyes, I got up, bathed, and [livejournal.com profile] ariedana and I headed off for breakfast. It was good. Coffee was greedily gulped.

I think [livejournal.com profile] kellinator caught the plague. There's clearly schpilkus in her gennektagezoink. (that sentence was a foolish attempt at spelling yiddish)

I attended a session on Southern Horror, where [livejournal.com profile] reannon made some astute contributions to discussing writing horror stories in southern locales. Also, I had no idea that Florida is not a popular location for horror from a readership perspective.

I also attended Hickman's and Weis' session on the Serenity RPG. It sounds like Whedon requested that they do the RPG. I'm tempted to buy it, even though I don't rpg much lately. Furthermore, Hickman is auctioning off slots for a monday morning playtest of Serenity. Proceeds go towards a Leukemia charity. I want to go to that auction, but I don't think I'll make it. I've got some other plans close to that time.

Alright, I suppose I'll get back to other forms of revelry...

I hope everyone is well!
