Plop!
And here we are, home again after Chicon! I would have posted something yesterday, but there was *way* too much tired going on. :)
The kids and I had a good time at the convention. So did Gretchen, actually, although she saw pretty much nothing except the Dealers Room and the elevator between it and the skybridge to our tower. I got to the open filk every night and had fun singing with a variety of old friends. I also made it to three concerts, which is pretty good given the table.
Sales were pretty good, much better than I had expected.
The ConSuite -- well, if you were watching Facebook, you saw me complain about the lack of Diet Coke there. (Seriously, if you are running out of *any* particular flavor of soda long before you run out of the others, then you have an ordering problem that you need to fix. There's a frequent tendency to under order diet soda for cons and I wish we could fix it globally, but it requires some retraining, I think.) Aside from that, the ConSuite volunteers were pleasant and doing their best in an environment where they were restricted to single-serving sealed packets of food.
It was good to go.
It is good to be home. :)
