Introducing Zombie Girl

Hey. I'm here. Survived. I think. Wow. Intense weekend.

I am a zombie today, so this will not be long or witty. Ok, the shows.

Saturday night was wonderful. Friday was ok, Saturday the Fest was rained on all afternoon, but Saturday night was magic, the pub was packed and they were there to hear music, I loved them all so much! Except for the " hey mad can I play your guitar" drunk guy at the end of the night everyone was so supportive and wonderful, I was pretty tired and hurting but their energy got me thru.

Sunday was rain all day. No violin. I had to sing the whole shows. Not used to that.

Monday. Another day of shows. Only nine more. DID re-consider coffee. Went to caribou and the teas were all " a relaxing soothing blend " sort of tea. As opposed to Starbucks where they have tea helpfully labeled AWAKE. But the caribou folks were so nice and let me taste the coffees and I went out with a cup, cream and sugar, and YE GADS! I get it now! Wow! Wake the heck up! I liked it so much I stopped at another caribou 40 miles down the road and had another.

( it's weird, the people at caribou are so sweet and nice and they act like they are really truly happy and have made their day that you stopped in and Starbucks they act like WHAT the heck do you want, fine, ok, you can have a drink, now leave me alone, we have much better things to do )

( and yes, I truly would support my local coffee shop, but there aren't any here or off the highway that I know of, don't bash me for going to the big guys, I am in dire straights )

Spoke to Malena on and off all weekend, which was lovely. And she left me many messages of encouragement. My clock out at the Fest is my cell phone which I have to have on vibrate, of course. I stick it down my bodice for easy access. Call me.

Call me often.

Love and Zombies, Lorraine

Congratulations on surviving another musical gauntlet!

Of course, 555-8487 works, too. ;)

No Caribou Coffee shops in Texas that I know of, though we do have Starbucks.

Hey...hope this isn't out of place here. BUT!

As Guest of Honor liaison for Balticon, I was wondering who thinks they may be in attendance at the convention in May '07.

If you think you might be, I know that most of you are really responsible people. I need liaisons who would like to work with our guests and me as well. I like cool people who are easy going. If you think you would be interested, please email me at vanda at ravyn dot com.

To see who will be GOH, go to www.balticon.org

I hope to meet some LaMmies I've not met yet, and all the LaMmies I've met, I hope I get to see you again.

As you must know by now, with Ravyn ad I at the helm of happiness, we like to raise our cons to the level of the sublime.

Kristina, YOU, me dear, have no choice!!! We wuvs you and missssss you!!! If you think you could POSSIBLY come, email me. K?

Sue and Dan? How could you refuse?

I'm hoping Lisa will come...and thinking we could possibly lure her!!

Perhaps, but I don't count on it.

Again, email me if you are interested.

I cannot offer vendor space or make any promises. I am trying to emass a group of people I can rely on.

Luvvies,
L!
