WisCon 33, after

There is no way I am going to be able to pull together a coherent WisCon summary here. My panels went well, the twins traveled extremely well, I had a lot of fun, I felt a lot more distractable than usual and a little out of place with, you know, no actual Con role this year or anything. Also, I missed some people a lot more than I anticipated. And I didn't make it to much programming that I wasn't on. Oh well. I was still energized and inspired in a way nothing else can do to me by the Guest of Honor speeches and the Tiptree Award Ceremony. And the auction, even without my little addition, was high silliness indeed.

But folks, the stroller is *not* a big "no-flirting-with-the-mama zone" sign, I swear :)

Special thanks to ktempest for taking care of her cousins, the lovely ladies April and Simone, so that I could sneak out to a fancy dinner at L'Etoile with Steven on Friday night.

P.S. I fielded more comments about Simone's 'tan' than ever before. Hello, Wisconsin!

P.P.S. chicken-fried morels. [swoon]

Also, cocktails

Also at WisCon, I figured something out: I like cocktails. I like them clever and a bit on the girly side, but not too sweet. Make of this what you will...
