Had a bad monent last night when I thought I had lost Mr. Bigglesworth. After leaving my panel on RPG war stories (where I had used the comp to read [livejournal.com profile] isomeme's story about Franz Arrit) I got back to the room to discover the laptop pocket in my bag wide open and no computer. Panic set in. I searched my route three times, filed a lost item report, and in general acted like the parent of a lost child.

This morning, I reached into the main body of my backpack for a book and pulled out... Mr. Bigglesworth.

Amazing what not getting any sleep for close to 20 hours will do for you ability to think of things like "looking in the rest of the bag first."

Panels have gone well, people have been met, I got the Top Secret Ribbon from [livejournal.com profile] katster (Go Giants!) and the universe shrank a little more when I learned that [livejournal.com profile] betnoir's husband, [livejournal.com profile] western_slope, went to Harvey Mudd with [livejournal.com profile] isomeme.

And I slept through the fire alarm.

I am glad you found it, though sorry that it deprived the Newsletter staff of the opportunity to use the "LassEee Come Home" headline.

I'm glad you liked the ribbon.

It was a fun weekend.
