Three Day!

Three day weekend for me, and just in time, too. Work, feh. Outside world, feh. Who needs it, when you can escape to convention land?

FogCon will actually be my first-ever general SF/F con (I have been to a couple of comic cons, APE semi-regularly and WonderCon once), so I am both excited and nervous. I'll know some people there, but not many, and I like the idea of meeting new people, too. Any advise for the first-time con attendee?

I'll likely be scarce around these parts from Friday afternoon through Sunday evening. Have a great weekend!
