The good news, as my subject states, is that judiang is doing better today than she was last night. As I type this, she’s probably asleep in her apartment (and if she’s not, then she’d better get herself back to bed PRONTO!) I just got home about 20 minutes ago or so and Leo is very happy to see me. (He was waiting in my front window for me and when I drove up, he met me at the back door. For a cat, he has many dog-like tendencies!)

Last night, miz_em and hergrace offered elsaf and I the use of the hospitality suite which they rented for the McGann Fan gathering. Thinking that Judi needed to have a monopoly on the bathroom all evening, we took them up on the offer and slept there instead of in our room. It had a lovely king sized bed that Elsa, Lance and I could all fit on with room to spare. I got up this morning at 6:30, showered, and checked on Judi. She assured me she was feeling much better in the morning and I even got a few smiles and laughs out of her. Lance was happy to see her as well. (He was such a good dog on this trip!)

We got everything out of the two rooms and down to the lobby where I checked out, got a hug from Lynn (I swear I’m not contageous! At least, I’d bloody well NOT be), and hugged Judi goodbye. The shuttle to the airport was departing and I got on it in time. And then saw Elsa walk by, so I asked the driver if he’d stop for a second so that I could hug my friend good-bye. He obliged and I hugged Elsa before departing for the airport. Thankfully, everything was uneventful for the airport stay and airplane trip. And here I is, ready to start decorating for that thing we call Christmas!

I’ll have to sort through my photos that I took in order to get a page together for this convention, much like I did for the Gallifrey Convention in Feburary. Stay tuned to here or the PMEB mailing lists for the eventual link.

I had a blast at the con, met many wonderful friends, made some new friends, and enjoyed myself immensely. Thanks to all of you that I got to see while at the con – it was fun! Let’s do it again sometime. And for those of you who were unable to attend, maybe you’ll be able to join us then. 🙂
