Last year I failed to be sufficiently organized for WisCon: as a result, I had to skip any late-night things I might have wanted to do in order to get the last bus back to the hotel. Getting the flu, too, might have been just slightly more pleasant if I could have taken an elevator back to my room instead of a taxi. (This sounds like such a hardship, I know. If you are not up to taking a taxi, you are really sick.)
This year I didn't dither so much about going, as I seem to be in an okay position financially, and I really need a vacation, and I can promote my book (but not in a tacky way!) and maybe even deduct it on my taxes? I'm not sure about that.
So, I have my registration all set, WITH dessert, and hotel. Whee. I think this will be the first time I've stayed in the convention hotel since one of the Otakons in high school, which seems very exciting and self-indulgent.
Hmm. And then Middle Sister is graduating from Concordia June 7th, and I need to get to Japan eventually, and mini-book-tour... all my vacation days, gone, gone, gone.
