What, No Coffee Pot? Must A Spy Bring Every Gadget?!

My posting here will be sporadic in the next ten days while I travel to CO and NV. I tend to have too much fun and then get lazy about getting online ;-).
RWA becomes busier and busier for me every year. I love it, but man, this year, instead of going to parties, I'm going to find a corner where I'll just sit and drink and holler at other writers. That will be my relaxation!

This year's RWA is being held at the Hilton in Reno. They don't have coffee pots in their rooms, so you can imagine the screams coming from at least a thousand writers. We need our coffee, you know! I'm sure a few hundred are bringing their own brewing pot or something. I'm not sure what I'll do yet. I guess, it being a casino, it can't be too hard to wander downstairs and get a cup of coffee, except that I don't want anyone to look at me before I have my coffee! ;-)

I'm really looking forward to seeing my friends whom I only get to see once a year. Catch-up, gossip, lots of discussion on 101 topics, and of course, the new RWA scandal about sexual graphical standards, or something like that.

I told RB that when I was touring the submarine, a few women were asking why the Navy doesn't just send down a whole female crew and that will take care of the close proximity of sexes in closed quarters problem. He got my goat when he snickered and said, "Can you imagine 500 women in a submarine? They will arguing over the sexual graphical standards of their uniform." Sigh. He won that round ;-). Why did I even tell him about that stuff? It's just another weapon to use against me when we bicker, grrr.

Anyway, famous authors, aspiring authors, favorite authors, writing experts, agents (and they spy too! I know this!!!), editors (masquerading as spies too!!!) will congregate for a week in Reno, NV. And there will be plenty happening there this year! After all, astrologically, Mercury goes retrograde for three weeks, and you know how writers love to communicate. A retrograde, people, means there will a lot of trouble during the annual general meeting, especially about that graphical standard and that questionaire with the weird wording. You know, 2000 women authors in a hotel in the sweltering desert is almost like being with a female crew inside a hot submarine ;-). Except that I won't get to enjoy half-naked sailors walking around, of course. LOL.

Bear with me while I learn. The first button likes the POST. The second button likes the BLOG site. Please help me by "liking" me. Thanks!
