because oh god this con has been so disasterous already
thankfully it hasn't been too bad for me personally
well, aside from getting here three hours later than intended and not getting to bring my bags up to the room until late
and forgetting a white button-down shirt, but that is all pretty normal and not big at all
First off, the main is that the con center had a power outage yesterday. so the entire pre-reg system got shot all to hell
oh god we're the first skit in the masquerade
What's the white button shirt for? You can borrow mine if I don't need it at the same time.
;;;
it's for PH, but it's okay; amelia's lending me hers
and it even has ruffles on the cuffs
but yeah; so power outage meant that pre-reg system was down
everyone with early reg got no badges
most of pre-reg also didn't get badges
but everyone was angry and hot and stressed, staff and attendees alike
but the hilton was down as well, no elevators, nothing
but we had one person drop out of our skit because her brother ended up in the hospital and her father had to use her flight to go see him
another person had to drop the con because the airline cancelled her flight and wouldn't let her on another flight without paying $200
another person's luggage never left boston, so all her costumes are across the country
chas's tire blew out, so she was stuck stranded yesterday
and there's just been small mishaps one after another yesterday and today
also they apparently lost the guest and industry registration list
so that's been crazy as well
and really all anyone wants to do at this point is sleep and drink and I am starting to join that camp as well
oh yeah, and the convention center is under construction so everywhere we use for shoots is a disaster
