Organize-y stuffs

1. Seriously I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO NOMINATE for lost_library. ):

I'm definitely doing the song I mentioned last entry for Imperial Radch, and probably also The Complete Poetic Works of Basnaaid Elming, and possibly also the complete lyrics to My Heart Is A Fish, unless I find something more compelling when I re-read.

For Steven Universe, somebody else already nominated the spirit morph saga which is good, but I still have to narrow down the rest. :/ Here is a poll. You can answer it even if you have no idea what Steven Universe is. :P

Beyond that I don't know. :/ I guess I could throw in some of the ones from last year that nobody offered. Or... nominate fewer than the maximum possible fandoms....

2. Is anyone going to [community profile] connexions_so? I was suddenly reminded that the other mid-atlantic multifandom slash con is actually happening again at long last, and am trying to decide if I should try to go.

3. So I bought my Sasquan membership two days ago and got a confirmation but there is no sign of my membership number or PIN yet. Other people who have done this, is that delay normal or should I be worried...?

I've had my Sasquan membership since the fall, so not sure, but I think I've heard people say they had to wait as much as a week. So don't worry yet?

I'd not heard of Connexions... your link is bad. I think you meant [community profile] connexions_so?

It took a few days for me to get my Sasquan pin - maybe a week? So I wouldn't worry yet.

2. I haven't decided yet. I'm mostly waiting to see if other friends of mine go.

I'm going. I haven't yet bought a train ticket or looked into roommates, but I'm going.

Hey, if you're going as well, want to share a room?

Connexions, hm. That's a a couple hours drive. Hrmmm.

I had no idea that ConneXions was running again. It remains the first and only con I have been to, but as it has moved south I have moved... farther north, so probably not for me.

I have no idea what Steven Universe is except that it is probably a TV show and apparently it has "gems" and that's all I know. But whatever Dogcopter is, I'm all for it. I think.

This is true! It is, however, really hard to make travel plans when you have a dog who hates when you leave, hates other dogs (so no boarding), and everyone else you know who you could conceivably ask to stay with her (which is how we went to the first con) has cats and other dogs and stuff. Sigh.

Ooh. Dogcop{ter/s}.

ConneXions is the weekend after VividCon, but it's also a two-hour drive from me and I'd feel dumb for missing a con so close. Will consider.
