In a funny coincidence, it was just announced that they're redesigning our logo of 25 years. Make a bit of sense, since the mission has expanded, though the current logo is generic enough, not totally necessary. I predict angst and wrath.

So that thing that might've happened today was complicated by the router refusing to restart, hypothetically, but it's a service contract and they were like ' oh, we might be able to get someone out there today' which is a big ball of no (and probably might get the hypothetical contract terminated) so then one of our people grabbed a schmancy router, in theory, for something else and reconfigured it and saved the day (and should be highly rewarded.) Of course, now a new project is down a router. Oops.

When said guy was stomping down the hall muttering Worst.Day.Ever, I might've said, ' hey, at least the halon didn't go off!' And got a hysterical giggle out of him.

All of us around for THAT incident are scarred for life. It's our measuring stick.

Oh!OH! And because of my stellar record of breaking shit this summer, everyone is all 'Sara broke the Internet.' FOR ONCE IT WASN'T ME!!

And for my next trick, I will somehow misplace both my DragonCon lanyard and my DragonCon postcard that's used for registration.

I'm confident you will find them.

(Psst. Don't forget VVC DVDs.)

The DVDs are by my luggage. I am more or less convinced, however, that I didn't register for DragonCon. I am trying to tell myself that this is not that big a deal, I can check on-site and register there if I didn't do it already.

I am not being terribly successful, and am instead trying to fight back a panic attack.

Also, I have no idea where my fucking lanyard is.

Agent Koenig is not pleased with you.

I am more or less convinced, however, that I didn't register for DragonCon.

Have you searched your email for Dragon Con Store (dragonconstore at dragoncon dot org)?

Do you know where your MARTA Breeze card is? Maybe things are hiding there?

I've got the Breeze card. The postcard always goes on the fridge, and the lanyard always goes in the jewelry box. Neither one is there. I found nothing on Paypal or on my credit card bills.

I just hesitate to register for it now in case I get to Atlanta and they say, "Oh, of course you're on the list."

Not sure how far you went back, but I registered last September.

Hope you find it Dana! I'm meeting a friend in Denver in a couple weeks, and had to be like "oh yeah, I should book stuff--I'm so used to work travel, where booking two weeks out is about as far out as it goes!!

Sara, I remember you talking about the halon--totally a war story!

Dana, is your lanyard in a pocket of your carry-on? That's where mine always end up hiding, even when I swear I've taken them out and put them in the Lanyard Box.
