Done Since 2019-05-05

Well, the big event this weekend was RainbowCon 3. It was a good weekend, modulo some tech failures around recording and streaming, and logistical problems getting Colleen out of and back into the car -- but she was there for Sunday's Ecumenifilk/Celebration of Life circle, which was mostly in her honor. The con was small enough at that point that we were able to move the circle into the main house, so she didn't have to try to get into the main performance space in the Box Room. The Maypole dance also came off well, and Colleen and the other non-dancers were able to sit on the porch and watch.

I was alarmed at how weak she is, and how much help she needed with car transfers (we called 911 for both of them at our end). Worried. But even with that, she "had an absolute blast" (her words, when Naomi called -- we were in the ferry line -- and asked), which made the whole exercise worthwhile.

The laser printer was giving me fits all week. Some kind of buffering problem, I think; any job over a couple of pages would end up being cut short. The network interface seemed somewhat better, but had problems waking the damned printer up.

On the whole, a pretty good week, and a very good con, despite all the hassles. Because Colleen.
