Good Times - INXS and Jimmy Barnes
Friday

I awoke fairly early for having stayed up too late packing and cooking. The remainder of my hasty preparations took until noon. After picking up some fresh fruit and dropping off food at a friend's house I arrived at the Denver West Sheraton for MileHiCon 35 at about 1pm. I'm sure I made quite an entrance wearing a casual outfit of black jeans, my blue Hawaiian shirt, and a turquoise & bone necklace. I was also deliberately scruffy since that goes with a sort of beach bum look. Hardly anyone realizes how much thought I put into looking the way I do. <grin>

Fin day one.

Next Convention Entry

Well here I am all panicked about getting my act together for MileHiCon. Apparently there has been a miscommunication about rooms since I still only have one room, where I thought I had two right next to each other. I've emailed Thea (our hotel liaison, the person that the hotel said I'd have to talk to about the second room) and I need to remember to call her again tonight. If she can fix this I'll have to do something wonderful for her. Any suggestions of what that should be?

My apartment is still not clean. I spent yesterday dealing with all sorts of things but ended up not having enough cleaning time. Maybe I should have put off my haircut until Friday morning. Also the DASFA bookmarks are not done, I'm going to have to see if I can either get them done Friday morning or what. I will have more than enough time to cook the eggs tonight, the difficulty is with everything else. I need to bake some cookies or maybe break down and buy them. I also wanted to make tapioca pudding, but I think that'll just have to go by the wayside. Maybe I'll buy a cheese cake instead. Also I suspect that I am short of eating utensils, I'll have to check when I pack up tonight.

Things to do:
Get Cash for Weekend
Buy milk, eggs, baking soda, and flour
Charge camera
Locate and pack camera accessories
Cook eggs for party
Pack big stockpot (to keep ice in at the DASFA cookie crunch and party)
Finish Bookmarks!
Bake Cookies if possible
Start tapioca soaking if advisable

Tomorrow:
Pack up cooler
Organize Car Somewhat
Get Bookmarks Printed
Buy ice cream and another gallon of milk if needed
Go to Hotel by Noon

Expect updates from me if you see them. I might be away from computer for the next three days.
