Ack!
OVFF starts tomorrow.
I should be excited... OVFF last year was overwhelming 'cause I hardly knew anybody and I was so very new to filk. Now I know people, which should automatically make it all much more fun.
But I'm drowning in paperwork at the office, where the world is conspiring to make this the Worst Possible Time for me to be off work for two days.
On top of that, I'm in my third (fourth?) week of bronchitis, and that and all the other stresses combined to cause a lovely outbreak of fever blisters, and when I ran by the MedCheck last night, my blood pressure was through the roof. (Oh, goody... more stress!!) Thankfully, the doctor wasn't too worried about the blood pressure... he felt it was probably transient due to stress and sickness, and we'll take another look at it in a few weeks.
I have no idea what to pack (and no clean clothes, no laundry detergent and, most frustratingly, no water pressure to the cold water side of the washing machine, so it takes forever to fill for each cycle), and only partial confidence that my Trooper, which has been behaving oddly since its recent (and expensive) Open Engine Surgery, will actually get me there and back.
I didn't go to the banquet last year... what do people wear? I own dressy clothes... somewhere... I think. Heck, they might even be clean, unlike my jeans and other comfy things. Gaah! I'll never be ready in time to leave home in the morning!
Somebody remind me that this is supposed to be fun?
*whimper*
(Oh yeah... adding to list... must pick up dog food, cat food and cat litter so that the sitter has all she needs to take care of the critters this weekend...)
