Making plans for fun to come is a great way to get through the dark, gloomy months, too -

And I just have to say how happy I am to be in company of other people that read and loved and dreamed of living Susan Cooper's wonderful creation -

I so very, very much miss you guys. I even had some WenchCon dreams lately... *sigh*

I'm still hip deep in this Crappy Martial Arts Book That won't DIE! erm, so I have made zero plans.

YOu guys wanna do it in the midwest this year, or re-visit Atlanta? I can get the same hotel at the same rate, but I don't have the time to go looking for a better deal. [Frown]

MLK Jr day will be on January 17 this year, I believe. We could do the Midwest get-together in January instead of December (more people, less holiday frenzy), if everyone is agreeable.

Mind you, I'd love to go back to Atlanta, but I think Olivia vowed to submerge herself in a lake of fire before organizing another of these things. *grin

Whaddaya think?

Do a significant number of people actually get MLK Jr.'s birthday off work?

Tom doesn't your school get it off? I've found most schools and government offices do get it off. Of course I don't.

You know, that would help brighten this gloom winter [Smile] I'm up for it, if you still allow non-wenches to come that is. [Wink] [Wink]

*is curious* So what state in the mid-west is being decided upon? I'd love to attend if it's close enough.

I don't like winter, but i don't get depressed, either. Believe me, I've tried.

My wife gets the winter blues, though. I dread the shorter days because of that. I do believe we are going to migrate south eventually.

Do light therapy lamps really work?

Realizing I'm not a wench, although certain parts of East Germany might disagree:

I can take a stab at organizing this if you'd like to explore the Atlanta option.

I blame Maui - I've got tourguide on the brain. [Big Grin]

*sigh*

You have to go do fun things when I can't come?

Of course, I shouldn't be greedy. That's when I'm in Hawaii. I'll make WenchCon IV, if there is one.

T- if you can find a good place for cheap and work out getting people there from the airport, I'd be willing to help out a bit. The thing is we'd need a place to screen the movies, which probably means a meeting room of some sort, since my place isn't big enough for everyone (and my Beloved is opposed to me planning to have a housefull of people that *I'VE* never even met before (though most of 'em I have, by now)).

So... Hotel, transportaion (I can help with that a bit)and meeting place. YOu get that, and basically you've got WenchCon III.

I'd be pro Atlanta, just because it's easy for me and not so cold as some places. But whatever. [Smile]

Aww, frell.

I'm totally booked until June at the earliest, and completely broke. Stupid school, and farm and horses. Why do they have to have babies anyway?

Ni!
