Silly Site o' the Day

I give up. I was absolutely planning to attend both days of the MoCCA Art Fest, but I hadn't counted on (a) the "1" train being subject to track work around my area, leading to a 2-hour commute home yesterday on two subways and a looong bus ride, standing throughout much of it; and (b) my inability to walk and stand very well, which got the better of me as MoCCA is very much a "stand around and chat" kind of con with almost no places to sit. So I'm skipping the trek in today. Even were I to take the express bus into Manhattan, I'd still have to contend with subway stairs, and that's just too much for me at this point, even with the walking stick. And even if Sunday's the best day to actually take a car into the Village/NoHo/SoHo area of Manhattan, Gay Pride Sunday isn't. Sorry PJ and Val (I was going to wear the Occasional Superheroine t-shirt) and everyone else! I had a great time yesterday, and I really did want to go in again today, but to tell the truth I burned out by about 4:30 and the two extra hours waiting for the ComicMix staff dinner (plus the aforementioned commute home) done me in. So today I shall rest at home and remain Queen of All I Survey:
