kerravonsen: Vila resting his eyes: "Only Dreaming" (Vila-dreaming)
While this is about Monday, it is not posted until today, due to my Wireless Access at the convention running out, and me not wanting to pay another $10 just to post this.
the last day )
a few post-con thoughts )

This morning, I looked out my hotel window at the tangle of roads below, and I was reminded of what Henry Ford allegedly said: "You can have any colour you like, so long as it's black." Look how far we've come, so many years later! You can have any colour you like, so long as it's black, white, silver, red or blue. Or yellow if you're a taxi. I did spot one green car, but that was out of a lot of cars.

I may have arrived at the convention centre later, but I feel as if I did more things, particularly in the afternoon.
stuff, readings, opinions, rambles and laughs )
I deliberately didn't go to the Hugos because I got the impression they would go late, and I didn't want to be trapped there that late.

Didn't sleep that well, I don't know why. Well, possibly the lights of the city helped keep me awake; at about midnight I got up and closed the blinds completely. The downside of that was that it was so dark when I awoke in the morning that I thought it was 6 or 7 am, but it turned out to be ten to eight! Since I'd ordered breakfast for between 8 and 8:30, there was obviously no time to have a shower before breakfast. Though it turned out that my breakfast didn't arrive until closer to 8:30, it would have been unwise to assume that it wouldn't arrive at 8am.

Wrote this last night on laptop; posting this from the convention centre wireless, which is not free, so I may or may not check in later.
I did stuff and saw people )

I'm back home for the night, since I couldn't get a booking in the hotel I wanted for tonight; I'll be checking in tomorrow.
Not much was going on, since nothing opened until 2pm - I thought that the dealer's room was going to open at noon, but I was mistaken. So I wandered around getting the lay of the land, and went through the programme with a highlighter.

The convention centre was far too warm. First I took off my jacket, then I took off my skivvy and was only wearing a t-shirt and vest on top. Someone must have told the convention centre staff that the place was going to be filled with Americans. TOO HOT! And then going outside was cold again. At least it was pleasantly sunny for much of the day; that was nice.

I am so tired. I think I shall curl up in bed with Girl Genius.

So, LJ has done annoying things again. I am pondering whether to disable comments on LJ. I have Dreamwidth invite codes! Anyone want them?

Also, WorldCon starts today. So I will be there, and not here. I may or may not connect to the internet while I'm there, so you may or may not hear from me over the next week.
