mikailborg: I can't even remember what event I was attending, but I must have been taking it seriously. (Default)

Marscon and stuff

Got back from Marscon Sunday. It was an interesting weekend - all the rooms were taken over by a military group preparing for special training, so all the attendees had to drive back and forth to their hotels. Put a damper on things, that's for sure. I wish I'd remembered that there would be a Rocky Horror show on Saturday night - maybe they'll do it again next year.

Caught up with [livejournal.com profile] kittykatya, [livejournal.com profile] impink, [livejournal.com profile] tzel, Tom & Donna, Jesse, Suzanne, Dave & Jodi, Dwight, Helen, and a bunch of other folk. I got some cheap Discworld paperbacks, and another Steve Jackson card game; for $1, I also bought a memory - the two books of the 1978 D&D Basic set (4th or 5th printing). We also got some Deadlands modules, and [livejournal.com profile] raininva won an auction for a signed uncut sheet of WARS: Nowhere to Hide!

Screen-capture trivia: the men's miniskirt Starfleet uniform from the early Season One episodes of TNG. Strange that this didn't catch on. I mean, can't you just see Worf running around in it?

There was something else on my mind, but it's gone now.

Continuing the saga of the books I've read this year - just finished a re-read of Asimov's Foundation Trilogy. I have to give Asimov credit for, in the space of a few short stories, giving me the feel of observing the fall of a Galactic Empire.

Yeah, they just couldn't seemed to find something that looked good on her and that she looked comfortable wearing. DS9 managed much better.
