Non-con

So it's looking like I won't be able to make it to DragonCon this year. I've got a singing commitment in France in the first week of September that clashes.

Last year's DragonCon was my third, and easily my most fun one ever. So many people whom I first met there have since become ornaments to my Friends list (Yeah, you! Stop looking over your shoulder; you know who you are.) I was really looking forward to reconnecting with you all this year now that I know you a bit better, and I really hope I don't have to wait another year-and-a-half before seeing you again!

I am particularly put out to be missing this year, because I predict that this September's con will be full of Spartans. Or, as [livejournal.com profile] nanashi_jones puts it, SPAAAAARTAAAAAANS. If there isn't at least one phalanx of Spartans In Bikinis, I will be very disappointed.

Ah well. Roll on DragonCon '08!

Also, roll on Whitby, where I will be in a couple of weeks' time. I first started this journal after last April's Whitby, as a way of staying in touch with all the amazing people I got to know there. (Yeah, you! See you there.)

Nerts!

I was really looking forward to seeing you at D*C! :-(

I was hugely looking forward to seeing you too-- high on the list of reasons to regret not being there.

Since we both seem to travel a lot, perhaps we can arrange to be in the same place at some point before the year's out? Would that be at all appealing and/or practicable for you?

That would be most excellent.

The year is looking pretty full already - Richmond, Virginia/DC around July 4, Toronto for Prophecy Con in August, Atlanta around Labour Day. But thus far nothing planned in the fall/winter!
