Work-life conflict

[randy_byers]

I went to a meeting last week about scheduling for the Time of Chaos that happens every spring around Commencement sign-up, and as I looked at the dates when I had to do important, mission-critical stuff, I had the sinking feeling that it might coincide with Corflu Glitter next year. I finally checked today, and sure enough Corflu is happening right smack in the middle of the time when I'll be needing to run test extractions and then the actual extraction. I suppose I could pop down to Las Vegas Friday night after work and return on Sunday, but my gut reaction to this idea is not good, no fun, ixnay. I think Corflu will be a no-go for me next year.

Ugh. And fuck.

Well, maybe another reason to go to Novacon then.

Irony! I'd just been looking at my Corflu Zed report and thinking, "That was fun. I should get to another Corflu one of these days." Tho' admittedly Las Vegas wouldn't be my preferred venue, so 2012 wasn't high on my list.

Oh no!

Oh YES.

(And of course if you want to stay for longer -- although doubtless there are lots of other places you'd want to visit the next time -- you'd be very welcome to stay with us again.)

Well, that sucks. I've been hoping to live Corflu vicariously through your memories. At least the Time of Chaos seems to come at a relatively slack time of movie releases.

But Portland: better than Las Vegas, as has been said. And I'm not surprised that a mere mention of the possibility of going to another Novacon has already resulted in people saying YES YES. People on the receiving end of such a visit, even. ;>

Good thing I used the emoticon so you knew I was kidding.

Come to Novacon! Novacon, come to it!

Yes, this definitely calls for treating yourself to something even cooler, tough as it may be to find anything cooler than Corflu.
