muskratjamboree, there's a post to the connexions yahoo group (the first official word since I think October) that the con is definitely happening.
Of course, the two cons are happening on the same weekend.
I could still easily, at this point, relinquish my spot at Muskrat Jamboree to someone on the waiting list and attend Connexions, but I'm thinking... not.
Muskrat Jamboree is insanely closer. I will not have to drive 7 hours in my ancient car or, alternatively, pay a hefty amount of cash to fly down.
Mr WG won't have to take vacation time for me to attend Muskrat Jamboree -- he can work from home on the Friday so that he can meet the boy at the bus stop, and otherwise I'll only be gone on the weekend. If I go to Connexions, he has to take three days off -- two to account for my travel and a third for Friday.
Muskrat Jamboree will be cheaper overall because of close proximity.
I won't be nearly as stressed about the travel if I don't have to drive to Connexions.
I'll get to meet new people (which is scary OMG eeeeeee, but in the long run a good thing for me.)
The bad things are missing Connexions, which I've really enjoyed when I attended, and not getting to see friends who might attend.
Urgh. Thoughts appreciated! Who on my flist thinks they'll be going to Connexions?
