It's already mid-March! Oddly, even with all of the Pyramids Press staff taking breaks from fanzines this year, a part of me still stresses over preparing for Mediawest*Con 2010.

In honor of the upcoming con, aka "the biggest family/friend reunion" this side of the Mississippi, I've posted some unofficial guidelines for May...

Da Rules Cons Never Told You About )

Nostalgic MWC Quote of The Day:
From PINKY AND THE BRAIN

BRAIN: We're going to a place where the sun never sets, the size of your wallet matters, and actors and actresses slave all day!
PINKY: We're going to Denny's?!

-cringe- I know, I know. I meant to post daily all the wonderfulness of MWC. In typical MWC, I got sucked into conversations, vids, fic ideas, zines, panels and--what do you mean it's Monday, already?! I'll do my best to do a few followup reports. I wanted to post questions here that popped up during Mediawest because conversation, fanfic and friendship was what this con was all about.

And Tim Tams. LOL

Why a TARDIS was sorely needed: post con report )

The first unofficial day of MWC. Three more times of packing and repack and just upped Apple's third fiscal quarter by spending $50 worth of iTunes gift cards loading up my iPod in a fit of downloads. LOL

And so, the angst/anticipation/apprehension/where'smypassport continues...

Where's a Multi-dimensional Spacial Impala When You Need One? )

MEDIAWEST: 65 hrs and counting...

THINGS I REMEMBER JUST NOW I SHOULD HAVE DONE FOR MWC: 22...and counting

HOW MANY TIMES I'D WISHED FOR A TARDIS: 45 and still counting

HOW MANY TIMES I'D WISHED I PLANNED BETTER: 22...and counting Forget it, I lost count.

HOW MANY TIMES I HAD TO PAUSE TIVO BECAUSE I GOT SO DISTRACTED THAT I'D STOPPED PACKING: Only 1...because I stopped packing ages ago. LOL.

HOW MANY TIMES I'D CONTEMPLATED PACKING MY DVD COLLECTION TO LANSING EVEN THOUGH I KNOW I'LL BE TOO BUSY VISITING TO WATCH EVEN MYSELF EXHALE: 0. Taking [livejournal.com profile] geminigrl11's advice. No DVDs. I'm burning them into my iPod, baby! Mwhahaha!

So, getting all the tribs packed, labeled and in happy stacks of pilfered Priority mailers all over the floor like tiny cardboard pillars. Tempted to have a Calvin & Hobbes moment and go "stomp, stomp, stomp" and make like Godzilla/Mothra/gray naked stinky monster Abbadon from Torchwood all over except duh, both legs aren't working yet. Oh well, cardboard's been spared.

Anyway, doing happy count of happy stacks, 16 lovely packages of zine bliss waiting for my postal man who is currently indulging in his love of postal uniform shorts today which is really wrong because the temperature just dropped from 90F to 54F so poor shivering, hairy knees knocking mailman--

Hang on.

-counts stacks-

17 stories...16 packages.

So channeling Numb3rs' Charlie Eppes and trying to figure out where/who/how one got left out from the happiness, wonderfulness (obviously, I was watching my I-Spy Dvds again) of tribs when it hit me...

I forgot to include my trib copy.

Doh.

Brain f_rt over, folks. Nothing to see here. LOL
