WorldCon is coming...

And I'm going to be there. Airlines willing, I plan to arrive the evening of Wednesday, August 31st. The con is Thursday, 9/1 through Monday, 9/5, and then I'm going to stick around for a couple of days to work in my employer's Chicago office -- I'm on a number of projects with Chicago-based folk, and I decided to take this opportunity to meet some of them in person.

So....

1. Will you be at WorldCon, and if so would you like to meet up?
2. Are you in Chicago (hi lassarina), and if so would you like to meet up? Especially for dinner on Monday or Tuesday night.

Drop me a line and we'll plan something!! Note that if we share a meal or have coffee or anything along those lines, I'll want to meet outside, or somewhere controlled with everyone rapid testing first. I'm still masking indoors in all public spaces, and I don't foresee that changing between now and September.

My thoughts on attending an in-person con are very similar to what they were in May when I decided to attend WisCon in person, with the additional reinforcement of being really happy that I went to Madison. As before, I'm happy to share more thoughts about my decision-making process if anyone is interested.
