beccaelizabethI had a look at the Redemption '09 program
there's only a couple times I want to be 3 places at once and no times there's nothing to do
except for the sensible people sleep now times.
There's lots of panels with 'writer' somewhere in the description, and lots of stuff with Paul Cornell. Though sadly Speed Dating is only for those people who don't think it's more important to hear a Doctor Who writer interviewed.
... yes. er. no comment...
... several layers of no comment...
Scheduled stuff starts at 2pm on the Friday, so I no longer feel stupid for ticking that box to stay over on Thursday night. Even though it's entirely possible I'll forget I did that and just wake up on Friday and realise I should be there by now and I've probably already paid for the hotel.
I mostly can't decide if I should take my laptop or not. I mean, if I take it and it goes astray, I am seriously up the creek with college and... well, everything. My laptop, it is my other brain. I just updated the backups onto the desktop computer, but I'm never quite sure I got everything. (I do need to investigate proper backup technology that can be sure for me.) But: laptop is my other brain. If I leave it at home, then what to do?
I guess I could compromise and borrow back the old laptop that didn't work very well when I gave it to mum two xmases ago. She hasn't plugged it in since and the cats sleep on it. It doesn't have wifi, or indeed much of an internet capability. But I'm sure it used to have some point to its existence.
I think I'm just going to pack as much interesting stuff as I can into memory sticks and, er, carry them around like talismans, or something.
*sigh*
also, I should probably pack some clothes.
I don't know if it's one of those clothing-optional events until I get there.
