Adventures with an unreliable narrator.

Feb 16 08: bay city blues

Hokey smokes, what a long week that was. Am now in Boston for Boskone. Busted my ass to make a deadline today, dashed to the train, discovered that I had somehow screwed up my Amtrak tickets and that as a result I would not be on the 7pm Acela, arriving Boston 10:30. Instead, was reticketed for the 7:30 local, arriving Boston 11:50. Which actually left NY at about 8:20, arrived Boston 1:15. (Only saving grace of trip up was that I discovered that I had a goldmine of unviewed Doctor Who episodes on my laptop’s internal drive, so between efforts to breathe life into the story about the sponge-golem kitty I brought myself up through the end of Rose Tyler and the subsequent Christmas episode.) Walked the mile to the hotel, which was good for clearing the head. Checked in. Was hoping to meet up with friends at the Tor party, but if it’s still going on I can’t find it. No food to be had anywhere.

Going to fall over now.

Commentary

Glad you got there safely.

At least think I understand what a golem kitty is:
