Some of you know that I was planning to go to D*C this year. Had my ticket and everything. But.
Several things have conspired against it.
- Rugrat's total and complete inability to handle even the smallest of cons (he freaked out in the hall of a small GI Joe con last weekend, where the only costumes were olive drab...). So he would definitely have to stay home/not at the con.
- spouse's reluctance hardening into negativity.
- work uncertainty
- and to top it off, the parents are going to move into their new house that first week and will need my help.
I am bummed. I was looking forward to meeting so many people that I know online! :(
And I'm sorry for any plans that will have to be changed because I'm backing out.
BUT:
I still want to Con-a-go this year, and I'd love to do the BSG/Stargate creation con in Burbank if other peeps are going to be there!
(It's at the same time, same hotel this year! mmm-- Gold for BSG PLUS day pass to see Cliff again... boy, is hubby going to be sorry...)

Next year I'll buy plane tickets for all of us right away. Then there'll be no foot dragging or last minute conflicts. So the costume will sit under my bed some more, unless I wear it to Burbank again in Nov. *sigh*
