Apr. 13th, 2003 11:02 pmStayed home Friday afternoon with Mom, who was all coughy from the Pancake Death Cloud (she's fine).
Saturday went to a rubber stamp convention. No I'm not high. It was at the Lancaster County Events Center, which is basically a giant animal shed out on the highway. It was just like an SF convention, but with...yeah. Compere had to consult her notes every time she read an announcement: "Good morning...Lincoln...Nebraska!" Stamping housewives in a dealers room are as vicious as SF fans, but they do smell better. Lots of dealers, with designs from the deeply weird to the Bible-reading teddy bears. No points for guessing which dealers I frequented the most. Also, lots and lots of unmounted stamps for tiny amounts of money. Yayness. Lasted about two hours before the hot dog smell drove me out.
