I am a total dork. I already started clothes shopping.
There's something dorky in that?
Since I bought my house I have done very little shopping for that kind of stuff so it was nice to have a reason to buy new stuff.
That is great! I hope you'll bring photos of Teresawood to the Fest.
I'm with J99 on the banquet debate. If it's your first Fest, I heartily recommend purchasing a ticket. I have very fond memories of my first banquet and am still in touch with nearly all the people at my table. After you've become a Fest regular, you may want to arrange in advance to sit with no less than 9 other fans. (
