A lot.

Friday morning: Dear neighbor tragically killed by a truck.
The rest of Friday: Get this news, and then set up and execute huge fundraiser for work. Finish packing out ~midnight.
5am Saturday morning: get up to fly to Philly for 3 day roller derby tournament. Miss memorial gathering of neighbors because of being out of state.
Monday night: fly back.
Tuesday: Fiscal year-end at work (I do bookkeeping.) Also, funeral for aforementioned neighbor, 1.5 hours out of town.
Wednesday: Load in for CON, where I will be until.. Monday?

I feel really overwhelmed, and kind of need more physical and emotional rest than I can afford right now. This is a really bad position to be in coming in to the convention.

I'd planned to sleep in and go in late for work tomorrow. Now, because of the funeral, I don't really know what to do, or what exactly needs to be done to tie up the loose ends, or if it's better for me to go in after hours or on Wednesday. I don't feel like I can let any of these things budge, they all need to happen.

I also don't have information I need from musicians, and for some god forsaken reason, I put myself on the bill even though I haven't practiced a set for even five minutes in two months.

If there are one or two people who would like a last minute Dj set in the space lounge on Friday night, let me know...

Did I meet the neighbor in question? (would have been at Clue night.)

No, she wasn't there.

Just asked a question pertaining to CVG, but this post answered it...

Goddamn, what the hell happened this week? Is it "the universe gets to fuck with our shit just before con" time?

Needless to say, my head's not going to be fully "in the game" either going this weekend, so I am very VERY empathetic...

you need to take a break. and based on this it kinda looks like wednesday is your best bet for it. otherwise you will be worthless to all three of these--your work, your memories of your neighbor, and Con. Con is actually the one thing you can let budge. It's going to happen with or without you! For reals. Train is comin' down the tracks.

Good point.

I had wondered if you knew the woman who had died, since the article I read about the accident mentioned she lived in the Lowertown Lofts. I'm sorry for the loss of her from your lives and community. :(

I'm so sorry to hear about your neighbor, not to mention your other stressors. *hugs*
