I’m back at the Day Jobbe today for just one day before heading off to World Fantasy tomorrow. I can’t decide if this is crazy or not. I’ve been swamped with little (and not so little) urgent things that have kept me busy all day, so I guess that’s good. Unless they are *so* urgent that Boss Lady would have done them herself, if I’d simply stayed away till after WFC…
Because there’s certainly plenty I could do at home. I sort of unpacked, but haven’t repacked. I have shopping to do, my apartment is a shambles, there’s green and moldy things in the fridge, etc. But, oh well.
Jay is even busier than I am, and we’re both trying to keep ourselves surrounded by people until we’re together again tomorrow. He’s been more successful at that than I have–I’d hoped to see The Ogre last night, but by the time he was done with WFC stuff, it was way too late to get together, and I was exhausted. So instead I talked on the phone to Mark for a long time, and stayed up way too late. 🙂 But he’s someone who understands about random unfair suffering–heck, he wrote a whole book about it–so he was good to talk to.
Then of course, I woke up at 4:30 a.m. Stayed in bed, finally dozed off right before the alarm at 5:30…thought about skipping yoga, but decided I’d feel better if I went. I think that’s the right decision. But I am sure tired now.
Lunch today with Notorious G, and tonight I’m going out to see Jonathan Lethem interviewed at a City Arts and Lectures event, and dinner before, with Clark Kent. Then tomorrow–packing, shopping, and drive to San Jose.
So, that’s me today: keeping busy.
