I have a slight problem. See, there are going to be a ton of people at Arisia that I really want to see, and I haven't been to the con in several years. Yeah, Boston in January, I know. The problem is that they've moved Arisia (insert grumble here about moving the dates, with extra bonus not-very-complimentary epithet) so that it now conflicts with alt.polycon 12 in Baltimore, where there are also going to be a good number of people I want to see. I can't do both, not while keeping what remains of my sanity at any rate. I'd rather not do neither. Do I flip a coin?

(This of course assumes that it's not completely irrelevant by virtue of needing to be on a plane to the left coast on the 22nd.)

There's nothing inherently scary about Arisia, I'm afraid I don't really know what you mean by that.

If I go to Sunnyvale (which I keep typing everywhere as "Sunnydale", a pop culture reference which you won't get but is easily figured out with a quick Google search), I'll need to be there Sunday afternoon. If I wanted to have any social time with anyone, I'd probably want to be there on Saturday as I won't really have any time during the week.

I guess I don't understand cons, really. And "sunnydale" appears to be a school: http://www.sunnydale.org/ . Why you'd care about a Christian academy... (scratches head).

Try Googling "Sunnydale" and "Buffy the Vampire Slayer."

I don't. It's a Buffy reference.

:P

I've never watched an episode of Buffy...

I know, that's why I said you wouldn't get the reference without using Google. Or asking Pat. ;-P
