Slash con

I got up around 11:30, to have a call from my therapist. Then I had breakfast and coffee and set about figuring out the ins and outs of the DC slash con. I never did get to the discord, but that's OK, the main part of the convention is on Zoom.

At 1 there was the first thing I wanted to see, a selection from Good Omens. So before that I hurridly showered and dressed, and then watched. A lot of fun.

Then at 3, [personal profile] mashfanficchick and zer mother picked me and the computer up, and on checking my mail as I left I found that my copy of the new Ben Aaronovitch that I ordered from the UK had arrived. So I took that and we went to Target.

At Target we picked up some headphones to use with our laptops, to use for the cion, but which I had been thinking of getting anyway for using with the FWiB when I have the fan going.

Then we went to Panera and got food. I fought with their app until [personal profile] mashfanficchick got it set up on my phone so I could get the $2 off of mac and cheese for Mac and Cheese Day. Then I splurged and got lobster mac and cheese. It was very good.

[personal profile] mashfanficchick found that the headphones wouldn't work with zer laptop. Ze even called customer service, and there was nothing they could do. So ze had to just use the sound on the laptop.

I went to several panels. They were all good. Obviously I skipped my meeting. At 9:30, Panera ckosed, and they kicked us out halfway through the threesomes panel. But [personal profile] mashfanficchick played it on zer iPhone as we packed up and in the car, so we heard the end.

After that I called Oldest Brother for the third time, and we went to Martha's for dessert before we had dinner.

It started raining and there was some really amazing lightning between the time we left Martha's ad the time we got to Flushing, where we went to a pho restaurant for very late dinner. It was very tasty.

Then they brought me home, and here I am.

Gratitude List:

1. The FWiB. We emailed though we didn't Skype.

3. DC Slash con.

4. My laptop.

5. My book came.

6. My meetings, even when I skip them.

Skipped this morning's panels, then [personal profile] mashfanficchick and zer mother picked me up at a little after 11 and took me to Starbucks where I used their WiFi to watch the Good Omen's panel while they got gas, and went to Target. The Good Omen's panel was great.

They pickedme up and we went to Panera again and settled in there. The con continued to be lots of fun, especially the Starsky and Hutch panel.

After that we left and went to Target again, and then got poke for dinner. Then they brought me home and I called Oldest Brother for the third time and Skyped the FWiB. Skyping the FWiB using the new headset is so much better than trying to hear him over the sound of my box fan! Called the Kid but she didn't pick up.

After that I fed the pets, and now am doing this. Going to go to bed and may start reading the Aaronovitch book.

Gratitude List:

1. The FWiB.

2. The con.

4. Poke.

5. Air conditioning.

6. Places with free WiFi.
