Foolscap Begins

Lovers who love truly do not write down their happiness.

Jack decided to let H--- stay home after all, for this evening. We drove to Southcenter in the late afternoon.

After we picked up our badges, I ran into Janna in the hotel lobby. She had some news for me! She's dating my friend Nick! When did this happen? He'll be at the con tomorrow, so I'll quiz him then. What great news!

Foolscap does an opening ceremony, where the chair, Margaret Organ Kean, welcomed us to the con, and the guests of honor were introduced. There was much trading of funny hats. From there, we went to the art show, where there was a dessert reception.

We didn't stay late, though there was programming we could have taken part in. Too tired!
