filkertomIt is with great regret that I tell you I will not be at ConFusion this weekend. I just don't feel good -- nothing dire, but this Con Crudde really has me. I don't want to give it to anybody, and I cannot perform at a minimum standard. Many virtual hugs to everyone who is there, and there'll still be lots of great music and cool people and fantastic books and excellent costumes and the best bar burgers at a Michigan con.
Who all will be there? Or, if not, what are your weekend plans? (Mine involve soup, sleep, and Mentholatum)

Date: 2011-01-21 06:39 pm (UTC)By the way, since I had few hours last week and less hours this week, I'm mostly staying home. Maybe I might clean, until I get some money next week. Heck, I could use some peace and quiet too.
However...I wonder if there is anyone out there that has proven remedies for con crud. Mentholatum sounds nasty. Maybe something like aspirin, an expectorant to loosen phlegm, and lots of Kleenex?

Date: 2011-01-21 01:46 pm (UTC)So, I plan to spend my weekend taking it easy: curled up in bed with a couple of books and some good chicken soup and hot tea. Though I have a couple of chore-ish things I'll likely get done as well, because they need doing.

Date: 2011-01-21 03:08 pm (UTC)So, on the one hand, no spoilers, gang.
On the other, heh, heh, heh.
Though I don't have crud to recover from (I got something on my way out for New Year's--not that it stopped me from my New Year's plans, I just added a lot of pills and sambucol tablets to my baggage--and finally pretty much kicked it shortly before Arisia), my plans are also low-key. I have a stack of reading to do for school (including, for my Colloquium on Innovation Policy seminar, "The Cathedral and the Bazaar" and various similar discussions of ethics and hacking; I love my courseload!), and a bunch of fansubbed (and unavailable in the US) anime to watch. Plus, dinner with the folks.

Date: 2011-01-21 03:47 pm (UTC)Well, no more Bujold, anyway. (Actually, no more Vorkosigan. Maybe I should give you Curse of Chalion.)
Not that it matters, because Butcher is next on the list.

Date: 2011-01-21 02:03 pm (UTC)Don't forget the benefits of a nice hot toddy whilst recuperating from la grippe. Get to feeling better soon.

Date: 2011-01-21 05:43 pm (UTC)I won't be there either, for similar reasons. I haven't fully kicked the infection (that half the people at Arisia seem to have gotten) yet.

Date: 2011-01-21 08:16 pm (UTC)I'm going to spend this weekend getting more rest and hopefully finish recovering. I hope you get some rest and feel better soon!!!!!

Date: 2011-01-21 08:50 pm (UTC)Since I won't see you tomorrow at ConFusion, I just got done watching you from the digital videos I made at ConClave last October. It took me a while to get them from the Panasonic Camera 8gig SDHC chip (less chance of running out of 1's) to the Panasonic Tri-Corder that is old enough to only know about 2gig SD chips. Finally figured out how to fake it out, so I got all digital transfers made instead of having to analog transfer from camera to machine. DVDs have been archivered, including Juanita Coulson and the Sutton's concerts.
ConFusion had to become a one-day convention for me, so only Saturday this year.
