Less than 2 weeks to go and I am busy busy! Doesn't help that it was Labor Day weekend so my day job was insane all weekend long.
I had to start a second Pandora station that reflects my eclectic taste in music because I refuse to pay for it right now and I run out of skips. My plan is to have some way to play the app so we can all hear it while driving. Whether that is plugging it into my boyfriend's car radio or going out and buying a cheap little speaker. And then we can have a nice selection of music to listen to because we will be driving A LOT next Thursday.
Tentative plan so far but my boyfriend has to go to the doctor in the morning. Then, we're going munchies shopping before hitting the road. Then, heading west to get my friend, Robin, in Sandusky before heading south to Columbus. We're going to check in and explore for a bit and then Friday and Saturday are convention days! I'd love to scope out a book store or a cute little boutique. I like looking for things like that when I travel.
I'm going to try and watch my spending this year. I am going to get my autograph and a photo this year and I'm going to focus on books and comics/graphic novels. I got too much little stupid nick nacky stuff last year that I never use. At least I'll (eventually) read the books. I'd love some artwork, too. Last year my boyfriend got me this beautiful Sailor Moon drawing. I currently have no place to display it but it's in a frame for when space appears.
I'm going to keep an eye out for this particular jewelry vendor. Sparkle, from Georgia, is fantastic. (I linked their Facebook page) I bought this "I Write" necklace from them last year and I love it. I wear it almost every day. I'd love to get more things from them this year if they come back.
I'm really happy my best friend can come along this year. We don't get to spend much time together. She lives an hour away. And, that's better than when she lived 7 hours away in Virginia but it still requires some planning for hanging out. Earlier this year we had been talking about doing a girls road trip but that fell through. So, this is about as close as we're getting right now.
I will do a better job blogging and vlogging this year. I'm going to load up on batteries. Not sure if I'll be able to blog while driving if the radio app is on but I'll try. I did learn the other day that my camera stops after an hour of nonstop filming.
Have to get some sleep. Planning on getting up early to print out what I have of my novel before work tomorrow. I want a hard copy to refer to for details and then I can finish it finally!
Will post again when it gets closer to the big day. Getting excited!
