Back from Necro, which was a fun regional SF convention with a distinct literary bent. Spent time chatting with Tim Zahn and his wife, Anna, and verbally fencing on panels with Lloyd Kaufman of "Troma" films, who I think believed I was a stick in the mud or something; I'm not sure. At any rate, the fans were great, the programming was very entertaining, and I sure hope the town of Tampa doesn't go the way of the last town where I attended a regional SF con: Crescent Cit Con in New Orleans.
Good to be home. Kath deftly handled several small crises while I was away, probably better than I would have had I been here. And this evening Caroline--who'd had trouble going to sleep the past few days--clambered up into my lap and promptly corked off with her hand resting atop mine.
And my stint as MC for Shana's Buffy sing a long seemed to go well. The theater was nearly sold out, and the audience appeared to be having a good time. So that's all good.
The girls go trick or treating tomorrow. They're going as the Muppet Wizard of Oz, with Caroline as Dorothy and Ariel as Miss Piggy dressed as Glinda.
