Counting down to FC!

General
Yeeeah, it's coming up! Haha, it's gonna hurt next week when I get back to my classes, wow. There will be some catch-up work for sure.
I've only been to FC once before, when I went for one day back a few years ago. Only there for six or eight hours, and my head was spinning when I left. I didn't know anyone there at all, went by myself taking public transit because I lived in the outer reaches of the Bay Area region, and left before the serious partying began for the night.
This time, it's gonna be awesome. I know at least a dozen people that I've met in real life who are going, and another whole bunch from FA and other strands on the web. This time, I will not miss the Gryphon Panel. I will be lurking in the dealers' den and will check out the art show. I will probably bug ya if I see you, in other words. ^.^ If I'm not chatting with people, I will be somewhere in the periphery of the main areas, drawing. Yes, I will be a total art whore, and I'll work pretty cheap, hopefully I will make enough to buy some of YOUR art. :p
If anyone wants to get a hold of me while we're there, (maybe for lunch/dinner/a drink or whatever) message me here - I will have my computer with me and I check FA like 3 times a day, at least. I do not have one of those fancy phones yet (money is instead going to acquisition of new camera) so instant communications might not be happening from my side. I'm going to attempt to get my phone service upgraded Tuesday and we will see what happens with that.
So, I will update this Tuesday night!

FA+

The good part is that we'll be able to switch off driving, so it should be a straight haul through to San Jose. :}
