Candle Fetish/Fencon

So, this year I decided that I'm going to buy candles only from that brand I love best (Tyler Candles) and not fritter away funds on inexpensive candles. So today in the mail, I got a trio of candles: their excellent Mulled Cider, the always favored Patchouli (which I've already burned, and declare lovely), and Envay a new scent that contains sandalwood and bergamot (yes, very men's perfume. I do like it.)

I have added Cowboy and Snickerdoodle to my wish list, because I don't know how you could go wrong with either. I keep the jars to store office supplies in, and it's marvelous to get a sniff of mulled cider when I grab out a paperclip.

I got my Fencon WW assignment, and I'm in the first group of victims Thursday night. Thank Goodness is all I can say! I don't weather cons all that well, and fear that I wouldn't make a good impression (or be civil) if I have to wait until Sunday's session. What a relief!

Which table am I supposed to sit at?

In response to the HS metaphor going around just now, I went and read this post and laughed myself silly.

My big problem is....where am I supposed to sit, exactly?

A few people have suggested I should go sit with the SteamPunk kids, due to the time period in which I set a lot of my work, but really! I don't have a black leather corset...and if I did, I wouldn't wear it to school. I'll never fit in! Hmmmph!

Perhaps over with the history geeks? Novik might be nice to talk to...
The romance table? Bujold and Asaro are pretty cool, though, and probably don't want to talk to an associate HS student like me....

Where did Martha Wells go sit? Caroline Stevermer? They're nice. Anyone seen Teresa Edgerton? Susan Dexter? Are they at school here?
