...for some reason I can't put my finger on, I hardly even feel like it's here.  I mean, yeah, everything's come up abruptly this year, it seems, but even now I should be packing to head out in a couple hours, and what did I just do instead?  Watched a 20-minute video of Neil Gaiman speaking to college graduates. (AMAZING, btw, and entirely worth the minutes spent even though I'll doubtless be kicking myself when trying to get out the door on time in a little while.)

But Animazement IS here, and I know it'll all feel a whole lot more real when I'm checking in tonight (or tomorrow morning, if we get into Raleigh too late), and setting up my artist alley table (I'm at D4, which I guess means somewhere in the fourth island of tables!), and then seeing awesome people all weekend.

So if you're going to be there, please come and be one of those awesome people and make my con feel real!  And maybe by then I'll be out of this admittedly very strange mood, haha.  I just hope I don't forget to pack anything important. o.o;;

See you there!
