Part two: the show...
Aug. 31st, 2005 10:12 pmIt was very, very slow. I was very, very bored.
I wrote more on my outline for tLS.
I wrote an enormous to-do list.
There were very few customers, most of them unknowledgeable, so it was somewhat frustrating. Oh well.
Had someone say our bags were "very colorful". They're printed in black and white.
I would put up the to-do list, but the writing is too small, and it wouldn't make much sense anyway.
I like Chicago, I really do. But I'm still not feeling 100% recovered, and the drive from WI to Chicago each day took two hours one way, and it was a Friday-Saturday-Sunday show, so there was a lot of driving.
The first day, I had directions that I had printed out, but the place where the show was wasn't identified on the building at all, and I had to go around the block, and then I accidentally got on the freeway and nearly passed out while driving. Very strange. I have been having difficulty drawing in breath at times since the stitches were taken out, and the doctor's office said it was most likely asthma, but I ended up pulling over on the entrance ramp and trying to not pass out. It was kind of scary.
Anyway, it was pretty frustrating, but I did get to the show. We only had a small booth, and it was very easy to set up. Other than that I can't think of much to say.
I was really glad to work on the outline. Then when I was unpacking this morning the outline fell out of my notebook and almost blew away. I really would have been horrified if that had happened.
Oh, and while I was in the grocery store the notebook was on my frontseat, and part of the outline was visible, and it said "Uses Painstone" and "Kills everyone", so I kind of hope no one walked past and read that, because it's rather bizarre. (It was a dream Sarah had in chapter 64 or 65.)
