Miffed is likely to be going out tomorrow. So here is my tenative introdution. Maybe I should make it more upbeat. But I have all the bits of Miffed #7 listed in my memories.
THE STATE OF THE FUND
Pretty much broke again. Getting the old mark.1 eyeball checked can be surprisingly expensive ($80). On top of that I blew about $250 on everything convention including a book I really ought not to have bought by any rational measure. I hope to save by not spending much on food and the other traditional geek ways of cutting back. I did some calculations at the convention and concluded that I need to save up around $200 to be able to produce a good-sized run of dead tree Miffed. I hope to have some of my friends help out with the big party at MileHiCon. Then I hope to recover for several months, spending minimally at COSign. And of course I need to get a better job so that I can just do my fanac without as much compromise.
