In the Planning Gears

[mishalak]

Okay I was remiss in not chronicling my Sunday. Brunch and a swing by Fahrenheit's for a while on the off chance that my friend Jose (the_enthusiast) might be there. We were planning to get together but communications got confused since I sent my late Friday email to his work address. At brunch I told Maya a slightly improved version of "Kiska and the Firebird". She likes it okay, but I sometimes wonder how much it is about hearing a story and how much it is about getting an adult to do something for her.

At two it was the penultimate MileHiCon committee meeting. Quite well attended with 19 people at Linda Nelson's house for about three hours. Then Rose, Linda, Becca, Bruce, and I hung around talking until almost six in the evening. The meeting was fairly useful for getting information communicated and the smoffing about cons afterwards was grand fun. I attempted to put the screws on some of the gathered con runners for the idea of a Westercon bid. Get people to come along with me to Westercon next year in Phoenix. No one volunteered.

Am beginning to suspect I will have to appear in the middle of the night with ropes to get people to come along with me. Therefore must get a pirate/conquistador outfit including lantern for this purpose. Would not do to be underdressed for a fannish kidnapping. Plus perfect excuse for both bid party theme (Conorado! sic) and an excuse to talk in pseudo 16th century English lingo. Arrr...
