It's Minicon! It's Minicon!

dreamsharkFor all intents and purposes, my Minicon started this past weekend. A Minnstf meeting on Saturday and a work party on Sunday, both of which I had to attend to talk to people about Programming. An excellent music party Saturday night, which was great because there was really too much music for me to talk to anybody about programming, so I could actually take the night off - and it started feeling like a con. Every other spare minute has been filled with Minicon business of one kind or another, mostly at my computer working on schedules and email.
I've actually been keeping up with the timeline I'd set for myself, but somehow I feel more and more behind by the second. I'm feeling excited, but increasingly nervous, as new tasks I'd forgotten about intrude into my brain. I have to get the refrigerators from Joyce's garage, generate formal emails to all programming participants listing their items (including the inevitable handful that I somehow never remembered to contact at all). I've sent off the event schedule to pubs for the pocket program - I hope they can read it okay. Tent cards! Omigod, how am I going to generate tent cards without a relational database? I'll just have to type all the names by hand into a Word file, I guess. I have the event list sorted by days now, but that has to be reformatted into a nice text document for each day to make inserts for the schedule holders outside the programming rooms. What about signs? Do we need more signs?
