filkertomI ain't ready.
I'm trying to get out the door to Dragon*Con this morning (I am not going to attempt to replicate my drive to Pi-Con, thank you very much), and there are still forty-six bazillion things that must be done. But, ready or not, it's time.
Aiee.
At least it's a straight shot down I-75. Very well-known territory. Only two major metropolitan areas to plunge through before Atlanta (Cincinnati and Knoxville; Dayton and Lexington really don't count, the latter because you circumnavigate the city, the former because you're in and out of the bad part in less than ten minutes).
Depending on timing and the weather 'n' stuff, maybe on the way out of Atlanta I can hit that lovely little Barbecue Kitchen over near the GAFilk hotel.
But that... that is several days from now. Today, the road. Tomorrow, the hotel. Friday, Dragon*Con.
I repeat: Aiee.
What are your plans for Labor Day Weekend?

Date: 2010-09-01 12:49 pm (UTC)And hoping that I can manage to get things done in the office Friday so I don't have to come in over the weekend to prep for a press event on Tuesday. I so want to shoot the people who make sure we have a press even almost every year right after Labor Day, even though my boss and I think it's a really dumb day for it.

Date: 2010-09-01 01:38 pm (UTC)As for the weekend, likely - clean room a bit, work on the 'to read pile purge' (they are getting shipped to a friend who belongs to a book swap site and has been sending me a couple of DVDs), split some tapes that I now have in the computer. (A few I said I would do and an OVFF 1 tape from a private collection.)
Also, Relax a bit, I suspect.

Date: 2010-09-01 01:40 pm (UTC)Right there with you. I am SO ready for it to be fall weather but not for it to be September.
Sleeping is high on my list of things to do this weekend. May also hit the local renfaire before it closes for the season.

Date: 2010-09-01 02:54 pm (UTC)Start preparations for FenCon. Change the oil, check the tires, make sure garb is in good condition and ready to go, make reservations for the dog's boarding, haul out the extra special suitcase, etc. I need to make a list.

Date: 2010-09-01 07:31 pm (UTC)After that, just relaxing. Kitten and Sean have been on really strange shifts for the past two weeks and I imagine they'll be resting.
Some friends (and a fan) invited kitten and me to a party at the Fiesta Cafe here in town, so I'll be bringing along autographed copies of Fluffy Thunder.
The rest of the weekend will be spent trying to get my Pale Mistress (who's now a part-time Lich) to level thirteen and doing the new dungeons that that opens up in DDO.

Date: 2010-09-01 08:49 pm (UTC)I definitely plan to go to the International Jazz Festival sometime during the weekend (and YAY! that the weather's going to be cooler this weekend). One of the nice things about working downtown is that I get free parking.
