After quite a lot hemming and hawing, we decided to do the responsible mature adult thing and skip Dragon*Con this year. We could have afforded it, but by not going, we'll have more money to spend enjoying our trip to Texas in a few months that's supposed to be our real vacation this year. That said, I am never, ever, EVER going to skip Dragon*Con again. I'm already missing it and it hasn't even started yet!
One of the big things I always look forward to every year at D*C is donating blood... I actually plan things out so I can donate there and at Origins Game Fair, although D*C is even better because they give you a cool t-shirt! Since we weren't going, I made an appointment and hit one of the local blood drives instead. Of course, I had to wear last year's Dragon*Con Blood Donor t-shirts, which got a lot of comments from the folks working the blood drive! And it was noted that the wrap on my arm matched the purple in the shirt and the purple in my hair!
I took this photo using the bathroom mirror to view the screen on my camera. Turned out pretty well considering my hand kept getting in the way!
