growyourwings...OMG. fickleone and I are flying out tomorrow morning at the ungodly hour of 6:50 am. We're in LA by about 9:00! Hopefully we'll be able to check into the hotel waaayyy early!
I'm now officially off of work. So much to do!
Boy that was a boring list.
I think I'm still in denial about this trip. When I let myself think about it too much I get waaayyy too excited.
I finally caved yesterday and bought Photoshop CS for my Mac. I'd been wanting to get it for over a year since the previous version I had only worked on my old Windows-based laptop. That's the software that supposed to be arriving today! I Can. Not. Wait. I love Photoshop and playing with graphics and photos. I'm excited about being able to do stuff with all the photos/vids I take at the LA Con. Plus I have a bunch of family photo stuff that's been waiting for me to get this software.
ETA: And the second I posted this I received an email from Creation about the posting of the "final?" schedule for this weekend. Here.
ETA 2: I promised some work friends and family members that I'd spam them with info over the weekend. I will be doing the same on my LJ. I can't link these other folks to my LJ because I just don't want to worry about fully expressing myself and I definitely keep my work environment free from some of my freedom of expression items! (grin). So I either have to cut/paste into email or figure out that LJ filter stuff. I don't even know if I can set up the filters to keep some people *only* viewing some things. But you know? My LJ is mostly public and I don't feel like changing that. So if I even tell them my LJ name that would be a potential problem. So cut/paste I guess it is.
