Ready to Go

After getting breakfast in the VIP lounge upstairs (thank you again, lisa_marli!), I moved all of the Match Game SF gear down to the SJ2011 bid table for temporary storage, then went back to the room, changed into my costume business suit, and packed my personal luggage out to the van. This gave me a little bit of time to sit here at the empty table next to SJ2011's table and check my e-mail before I move over to the Donner Pass/Siskiyou Ballroom so that I'm ready to move on set-up for the show as soon as the Tech Team are ready for me. I have the usual pre-show jitters, but I expect they will fade when we're actually "on the air." Setting up the show always makes me nervous; it's the waiting that's difficult.

My Legs Are Broken

We had another good Match Game SF show this afternoon.

( Photo Story beyond the cut )

And then we were done, to the applause of dozens -- but given how few people attended SiliCon and that this was the last tranche of programming of the convention before the wrap-up panel, I think we had a significant percentage of the people still at the convention attending. The Tech Team started striking their gear, and the Match Game crew struck the game set.

( More show thoughts, thank yous, and what happened after )

And now I think I'm done and need to get some rest.
