Events (and one convention)

[mikekn]

Just sent out our registrations for a bunch of events and one convention.

Edit (10/20): Added the rest of the weekends in.

What we've got coming up:
- Funeral
- Halloween party (parties?)
- Bearbaiting, Cockfighting and Shakespeare - in Boston, so we'll probably make a weekend out of it.
- Metalsmiths Symposium  (violet_amy) / 100 Minutes War (me) - different interests pulling us in different directions for the weekend.
- Ursinus Revel (and maybe a game day)
- Darkover Con - with Tamora Pierce, Katherine Kurtz, Diana Paxson and a Clam Chowder concert.  (Anyone else going / want to go?).
- Tree trimming at my mom's.
- Bhakail Yule - skipping Philcon (again).
- EK Brewers Collegium - still working out the details on this one.
- Christmas (no plans yet)
- New Years (no plans yet)
Also in the works for January are 12th Night and Birka.

So what are you up to?

These days it takes a guest I'm really interested in (or a Clam Chowder concert) for me to show up to any convention. Still, before Philcon moved downtown I would at least day trip each year.

Even so, I've not been getting much out of cons these days, so it's hard to justify the time and money. Fairly depressing when I think about it - I used to attend several cons a year, and while I had fun I don't think I ever got really caught up in fandom. I always seemed to be on the edges. Ah well. There at least you have my reasons for skipping again.
