Thursday night is the Last Drink Bird Head / Finch / Booklife party, which will also feature the first Last Drink Bird Head Annual Awards. Preorders for everything available, and everything worth preordering.
Friday night is a fancy schmancy dinner.
Saturday night is the Gigawatt's birthday party, featuring zombies and cupcakes (science-fictiony mortician's dress? check), followed by the Weird Tales party.
Sunday night I crawl around gibbering and looking for somewhere quiet to sleep.
Followed by a couple more days in San Francisco, and then another long flight back across the Pacific, to the future.
There's lots of people I know that I'll be meeting for the first time, lots of people I know I'll be meeting for the second time, and lots of people I don't know I may or may not be meeting at all. Should be interesting, at any rate.
(There is not at all enough time to prepare for this argh.)
I am so, so excited to meet you. I am drafting an LJ post about my excitement about WFC and meeting my rockstar online friends right now.

Sorry I won't be there to be one of those people in one of those categories. But: Yay aquarium! The Monterey Bay Aquarium is the yardstick against which I measure all other aquaria. As well as a lot of other things it's probably not a good yardstick for.
ReplyDeleteYou know, I keep forgetting that I -haven't- met you, Marian, heh. Seems like actually being in the same place, same time with you is simply a formality.
ReplyDeleteDavid, dude, you're going to Africa. AFRICA. And I've been to the Osaka Aquarium. Monterey has some stiff competition.
Aww, I know exactly what you mean! I feel like I've known you forever and ever.
ReplyDeleteWe're doing our SF exploration after WF instead of before it, but if you're semi-mobile and inclined the old Bath Works is a pretty cool spot. And big, big congrats on the top sekrit beans VanderMeer just spilled all over his blog! So cool...
