Excursions

[mrissa]

So. I'm going to WorldCon. I had kind of thought I would be -- I was almost sure I would be -- it seemed likely I would be. Then somewhere along the line it changed over from "I probably will" to "I'm going to, but let's see if Stella can go, and if she can't I'll buy her membership so she doesn't have to waste that much money." And Stella can go. So I went and bought myself a membership. Got the confirmation number and everything. I'm going.

So who else will be there? Who wants to have lunch/dinner/cuppa coffee/heartfelt conversation/silly joking/happy parties/interesting panels with me? Anybody? Hello out there? I'm friendly. I'm nice. I don't bite except on request, and sometimes not even then, depending. Early on, Stella said I know everybody. I don't know everybody! Sometimes I think I won't know anybody! Reassure me that I'll know somebody or at least will have somebody who wants to meet me! Please?

No, no, because I push you at people and say, "People! This is the Stella! Stella! This is the people!" And then you can be charming and funny and I can sit back and listen.

Yes? No? Maybe? Maybe we will take turns. We can set up a charming-and-funny schedule. If Hannah is following you around, we can pencil her in as well.

When Mark's friend Vince was over for dinner out in California, he kept up a running monolog that had us all in stitches. But he kept reminding us periodically: "It's been ten minutes now, you're going to owe me ten minutes....okay, I've been entertaining you for fifteen minutes, I'm due fifteen in return...." When he was done, he sat back and folded his arms expectantly. But then his girlfriend announced a headache, so we didn't have to see if he actually would demand 35 minutes worth of charming-and-funny from each of us.

Ah, but they don't know her as the stella, they know her as the S. She's incognito.
