Don’t expect much here today. Check in with the twitter feed for updates on what damn fool thing I am doing. That’s probably the best bet.

Sorry I couldn’t make it. Tell San Antone they better treat you well…or Austin it’ll have to answer to Austin.
Welcome to Texas and hope to see you Sunday. Hope you have a good time!
But…But…it’s International Bacon Day! No bacon posts?
(Peanut Butter and bacon cookies would be more portable for worldcon, but I bet I could make bacon churro waffles).
I decided not to go to WorldCon, for reasons that I don’t now fully understand.
Oh, right. Texas. Seems stupid now.
There, there. Let’s not troll on Texas.
OMG, I bought Redshirts and cackled my way through it. Love it – especially the ending.
Not trolling on it. It was why I decided not to go. Partly because of politics, but mostly because I don’t do well in hot, humid environments, especially when I’m as fat as I am right now.
Stupid reason. Hotels have AC, and I don’t here in Hoboken, where it’s extremely hot and sticky.
The fact that Rick Perry is striving to turn Texas into a racist misogynist hell-hole still applies, but would not, in itself, be sufficient reason. Especially since I expect Texas fans to be appalled by that evil coprocephalic noncompos.
I hope you win.
Oh, well, please post if it’s sufficiently foolish. With a picture.
