No. And yes. It's always sudden.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

I’m sorry, Laura.

I’m at the con. Last night was fun. Today, I woke up to find that someone had come into my room while I was sleeping and took my purse.(The door needed more force to close than I gave) I have no money, no ID and no keys. What god have I offended to keep having shit happening to me?

Oh, Lord, Sheryl! Where is the con? Are there any Buffistas in the immediate vicinity?

Our wings are not tired.

Good grief, Sheryl!! That is just awful. Does the hotel maybe have cameras?

The con is in Columbus. Gary will be joining me later. I’ve already had an offer for a ride home if my ID doesn’t show up. (No ID, no flight home.) I don’t remember if I have a spare car key at home. Sigh…

Sheryl you can still fly with no ID, it just takes more security. Though with no phone you might not be able to check in (I’ve flown with a boarding pass but no ID before). But damn that sucks

I have my phone. It wasn’t in my purse last night. I’m on Southwest, so I can check in, but printing out my boarding pass will be difficult without ID.

Punishingly Intricate

You don’t need to print your boarding pass. Just save it on your phone. I’m sorry that happened. That’s so scary someone came into your room!

Ugh, Sheryl. I’m so sorry that happened to you.

Even if I were able to get through security with no ID, I’d have to take a taxi from the airport because I don’t have my car keys. I don’t have any way to pay for it.
