I probably won't be reading LJ much the next few days... Noreascon starts on Thursday, and Wednesday evening we're planning to go out to the hotel for a few hours for some concom stuff. If I have time and computer access, I'll post from the con, but I may not really be able to catch up on mail and posts 'til after Monday.
I had planned to pack tonight, so I wouldn't be panicking tomorrow night, but that didn't work out because I really wasn't feeling well. My father brought milkshakes to the store for my mother and me this afternoon, which he does sometimes when it's hot out. Usually it's a nice treat. But I didn't think to ask where he got them... this is the second time I've had a milkshake from J.P. Licks, and it's the second time I've gotten a severe upset stomach. Milkshakes from any of the other local ice-cream places don't hit me that way. (My mother has had the same reaction both times - though not as intense - so it's not just me, which is even weirder.) We've told him he is not to buy them there again... but in the meantime, I've lost most of the evening to either dealing with the stomach-ache or feeling generally gross.
Somehow I'm up late anyway, b/c I was trying to look some stuff up for
sdavido, and one thing led to another... but in the meantime I haven't packed. And I really don't know when I'm going to. (As many of you know, I hate packing, so it tends to take me a while.) Hopefully it'll all work out somehow, but I have a feeling we're going to miss opening ceremonies... oh well.
In case I don't type to you before then, have a great weekend! We'll catch up on what everyone did eventually...

Maybe you could write to your favorite ice cream co. and ask them to open a competing location so your dad will have somewhere good to get you shakes. Drive JP Licks out of Brookline!
