Tep, I can just use my nametag from last year, if it helps.
And I remember to bring it.
Also?
I had previously been cautiously optimistic about my ability to deal with the cicadas, but the email from Lee's (?) relative finally pinged me. I think it was the sheer numbers.
I will be spending most of the weekend cowering indoors, twitching in the corner, with Jess. Thankyouverymuch.
Oh god, I just got in from my morning one, and the cicada carnage is horrible.
It
is
a bit crunchy out there, Raquel. I've noticed it's worse in the early morning though. Also, it won't be quite as bad in the city proper, I think due to the high concrete-to-dirt ratio.
BTW, your al-Cicada remark upthread nearly caused orange juice to go out my nose. I'll have to remember that one.
So I got my ticket from DC to Chicago--who do I send my flight info to? And, er, who do I ask about rides to the airport?
I just realized I had no idea how to get to the hotel from my apartment. Is it walkable from Union Station?
There's a map here (I ganked it from the hotel site so I could link directly). It looks very walkable to me -- just a straight shot up Louisiana Ave.
Let me check at Office Depot (or Office Max, or Boy Do We Have Office Supplies! -- whatever it's called) to see if they have packs of fewer than 50 nametags. I'm really not cheap, I swear -- just broke. Plus, I really don't want 40 leftover unused nametags.
ION, I now have fishnet tights. I am ready.
So currently the main music mix for the F2F is sitting at 198 songs. That's 13 hours of music. I'm still trying to pare it down. Anyone think we can just party until the music runs out?
That's a shame, I'd just remembered we should also have
Would you...?
by Touch and Go. If you want to make it 199.
My name wasn't on the list of 49 that was posted, but I sent my info
to Vortex.
In other news, I found a dress. Not quite what I was hoping to find, but
I think it'll do. (It's black. When in doubt, go with basic black). It was very
hard to find a dress that wasn't the wrong color or too long or flowery.
(I'm not a flowery dress kinda person) As a backup I'll bring the Red Hot
Riding Hood dress.
