WorldCon Weekend
30-Aug-02
Well, WorldCon is this weekend. In fact, it started yesterday, but I still haven’t gone up yet. I’m really dawdling right now– I was working on my costume, but I burned myself with the hot glue gun and won’t have it done in time for tomorrow at this point anyway (as soon as I burned myself, things stopped working well, and the whole thing’s just a mess now–argh!), and I’m just. . . . I don’t know. I don’t know why I’m dawdling on getting up there. I guess it’s partly because I lack overnight accomodations and none of my friends are going to be there, so I kind of worry that I’ll be bored or lonely, which always sucks. Also, I missed the LJers this morning (10 AM– I was taking the cat to the vet).
Sigh.
And did I mention that my finger hurts like a MoFo? I HATE hot glue burns, because I can never get the glue off of my fingers before they cause 2nd degree burns, and then I have to make sure I don’t drop the glue gun on the sofa while I run to the sink. . . . by the time I do all that, I’ve got a pretty f-ing serious burn. Also, there’s nothing you can really do for the pain, aside from cold water and ice, and those only help while they’re actually being applied.
