[yet more con]
Sep. 5th, 2004 10:54 amThis has been _such_ an interesting morning, FSVO interesting.
It's bad when I'm not awake enough to have a conversation, because it means I'm not terribly verbal. It's worse when there's huge amounts of negative emotion being sent at me, because it means that my ability to process words - both coming in and going out - is compromised by that, as well. And it also means I have _no_ memory of what was said to me or what I said (ok, beyond that I don't think I said anything I've not already said many, many times, because my ability to get new things into words was completely nonexistant). Lots of emotional memory, though. *sigh* Definately one of those times that I wish I didn't know for absolute certain that following my instincts of 'run away!' was probably the worst possible course of action (so I didn't).
Would have been a good day to stay in bed an hour later, I think. Of course, I had already stayed in bed about 3 hours after I was awake, so I'm not sure I _could_ have. Ah, well. At least there was probably a release of built up emotion on the other person's part.
And I've stopped shaking.
Now, I go to a panel! La!
(and try to not be too amused by people's reactions to the kitty slippers I'm wearing. ;)

Uh, no.
Second reply:
Well, sorta. I guess that kinda already happened. But this is not a case where I expect to ever be able to have a reasonable conversation with resolutions or anything because there are wildly different ideas of what is and is not reasonable.
Kitty slippers: The most entertaining was probably the person who asked if they liked to be pet. Although the child who fed them an (unopened) half-and-half packet thing was amusing enough. :)
Pictures - eventually, perhaps. I shall likely also bring them with me next weekend.
