On Getting Ready

Tomorrow begins Shore Leave, the Star Trek/media-SF convention I attend in Baltimore every July.

I haven’t packed yet.

Today I work until six, then I need to come home, pack a bag, and get some sleep. A little time, a little rest, will do me good.

I should clean out the Beetle. Yes, that would be wise.

For my birthday I received two new outfits–shirts and shorts. They’ll be quite spiffy this weekend.

But first, I need to get through one more day of work and write out some detailed instructions for the next few days.
