Things wot I am doing

Wherein I am busier than I look.

I'm starting to look for a place to stay for the San Diego Comic Con. Good grief, everyone raises their rates for that week! (One of the small hotels I called actually apologized.) So far my best bets are either a hostel (share a room with 3 folks for $50 a night) or stay in a home through airbnb.com for $60 a night. Or I can stay with friends out in Alpine, but renting a car, plus gas, would be about $250 anyway.... Anyone on my list (or a friend) want to go and split costs?

ION, the knee is slowly getting better. It's been hurting since New Years', but the swelling is going down and I can walk on it for longer and longer stretches without being in agony. Since I'm going to Genghis in Denver CO in February, this is a good thing.
