Heat brings me down. Everybody is always so happy when it becomes warm, I get irritated, irritable and pissed off. I used to think that it was because I was fat. Although it is not a usual reason for losing weight, I did and discovered to my great dismay that being thin did absolutely nothing for my ability to deal with heat. I still hated it and handled it poory and felt faint, irritated and in no mood to do anything but swim and sleep.
So, I am even more heartbroken than I would usually be because I have had to skip Archipelacon. I would have loved to have been able to go as I am sure this will be THE BEST con of 2015. But, the main reason I am sooo sorry is the fact that is definitely NOT hot in Finland!
I would urge you to go – they have fun programming and a list of GoHs that makes my head spin with joy – George R. R. Martin, Johanna Sinisalo, Karin Tidbeck, Gary K. Wolfe and Parris Mcbride. But they are sold out. I passed on my own membership but that might not be a case with my husbands. Interested?
I would loved to join Archipelacon as well, but I can´t be at every con. Unfortunaltly.
