It looks like i may not be going to Norwescon this year after all. I haven't decided for sure yet, but it doesn't look good right now. Aside from some major financial issues, I just don't have any reason to go. My health is not good, and that would make a lot of the things I would normally go for far less likely to happen. The parties I would normally be going for aren't happening this year, or are so scaled down that there isn't really any point.
And mostly, there won't be the people. I go to con mostly for the people. But the people I go for aren't really going to be there this year. And, really, aside from one or two people, there isn't going to be anyone there who wants to see me. And even if I do go, I won't get to see them, because they'll be busy with other things. I don't really have any friends there anymore, no one to hang out with.
There are still the panels, but for me that's only half the con; and I can't justify the expense for the other half.
I don't know. If I had a way out of this financial pit, maybe; but right now things look far too bleak.
