Miffed September 2003

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.

Mile Hi Con ... Devil in the Details!

I know ... I know ... it sounds so much like Ross Perot ... but ... he is right. Planning is easy ... doing is the hard part. But, fear not, things will always work out. Count on me for $40 worth of the expense. I will do everything to make sure I am there to help ... reschedule ... etc. Will you do me a favor ... hurry up and win Powerball ... and we can do nothing but plan ... and have the caterer do the hard parts! Hey, think of the club we could build with the right resources and location.

As you can see ... I finally signed in/up/for livejournal ... now you have to show me what I am doing wrong! Maybe we can get together on a free day and you can give me the ins and outs of editing! Thanks, Paul

Sure, getting together would be good. I'd be happy to help you out Paul. And thanks for the offer of help with the convention. I'll keep you posted on when I have free days, I'm still planning on doing Gormenghast sometime on Saturday.
