Monday Mumblings
Fresh when it gets here from

I have been trying to compose an entry since Wednesday afternoon. No cookie for me.
Seriously, I have been swamped with FenCon business. I'll post my schedule in a separate entry.
I
did take the time to watch the debate on Friday. I plan to watch the
next debate (after the con is out of the way) with a notebook computer
and all my Google fu skills at hand. I can't help but have this sinking
feeling that the candidates are stretching the truth more than just a
wee bit. I plan on watching Thursday's debate, but I'll be multitasking
again.
I still have an uneasy feeling about this government
bailout. I'm glad Congress stepped in rather than let the Treasury ride
roughshod over the entire process, yet I have this sinking feeling that
executives are still going to take home more than most of us make in a
year if/wen they're cut loose for incompetence. The feeling persists
that people like us who pay their bills on time are gonna get screwed
over big time.
By this time next week I'll be cleaning up from
the convention. Oh, my job doesn't end when the convention starts.
There are fires to put out, panels to sit on, guests to take care of,
and so on. Sunday we'll break down all for the rooms, pause for the
dead dog party, then resume Monday morning as we get the last of the
stuff out to various cars and vans and check out of the hotel by noon.
Then it's home for laundry.
Tuesday, perhaps, I'll crash.
Today
the printers (both of 'em) are running as fast as they can, producing
items for the guest packets. I still have a display for the lobby to
put together. I made a huge list Saturday night and thus far have
managed to knock three items off. Well, the third is in progress and
should be out of the way before I finish this entry.
I suppose the Cowboys had to lose sometime. Did it have to be to the Redskins?
Oh, well. Back to work, but I will at least get my FenCon schedule out. Promise. Unless the phone rings again...
