Quick update...

mijanI'm back from Arisia (geek convention in Boston), and I had a blast. As always. I love cons. I love the people, the discussions, the randomness, the geekery, the excitement, the energy, the experience... all of it. Arisia is an amazing convention, and if anyone feels like traveling for anything smaller than Dragon*Con, then Arisia is the regional convention to attend. SO. MUCH. FUN. I absolutely love it every time.
What I don't love is feeling like I've been hit by a steam roller.
I went into Arisia already feeling a bit under the weather. Not sick like a cold, but sick like dizzy and fatigued and faintly icky. Now, I seem to have a very mild head cold on top of already feeling icky. Feels like I've been kicked in the gut by a horse. Vision is oddly blurry. And gods, I just want to lie down. But I'm at work, and I still have more work to do.
So now, I'm going to go play with radioactive waste. WOO-freakin'-HOO. And then I'm going to try to complete another training module for general HAZMAT qualification renewal. And then I'm going to go home and collapse. But I can't really collapse... for two reasons.
#1. I'm going to ANOTHER convention this weekend, and I need to wash, dry, fold, and re-pack all of my costumes.
#2. It's my wife's birthday, and I am determined to do SOMETHING for it.
So, in summary: Arisia was awesome. I am *ded*. I will post in detail about Arisia when I am not!*ded*. Also, happy birthday DeForest Kelley - you are missed. And Happy Birthday![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
