And why have you brought me children's toys?

Please ignore last post: I am not going to Wiscon this year. A confluence of physical health issues is not going to permit it. My apologies to everyone I had even tentative plans to meet up with. Trust me, I'd rather be hanging out with you.

I need an icon that's in even a worse mood than Psholtii.

I'm very sorry your health is preventing you from going. (When is it, exactly? Is it next weekend?)

[cucumberseed.livejournal.com]

This one might be appropriate. That's fucking awful. I am very sorry.

[gwynnega]

I'm so sorry you can't attend! You'll be at Readercon, yes?

[chomiji]

I'm so sorry to hear this! I know you were really looking forward to it.

I hope you feel better soon.

damn damn damn DAMN!

Oh no! And I haven't seen you for years. I hope you feel better.

[stealthmuffin.livejournal.com]

Oh, damn. I hope you feel better soon -- is there anything you'd like from WisCon, or anything that would make the ill time pass more quickly?

[ckd]

I'm very sorry you can't be there. I wish you a quick and full recovery, and hope to see you at Readercon if not before.

That's awful. I'm so very sorry.

I hope you're feeling better soon.

Ach! How disappointing and frustrating for you. I hope that your health issues clear out soon, for general health's sake even if it's too late for Wiscon utility.

(I am not going, either, but then I've known that for months.)

As promised, a small mix o' pain vs. hope:

Crow’s Nest—Claire Jenkins Avec Band (http://www.box.net/shared/uli6nhvm02)
Trouble is a Friend—Lenka (http://www.box.net/shared/rih24r0qld)
So Far from Your Weapon—the Dead Weather (http://www.box.net/shared/p027rbot1i)
Lightning Field—Sneaker Pimps (http://www.box.net/shared/x2mp8o4ev6)
Nid de Pie—Claire Jenkins Avec Band (http://www.box.net/shared/48oaiog7s4)

(The first and last tracks are from a local Toronto artist my Mom met through work, and are mirror-images of each other. It's too bad you never got to see Claire Jenkins' stage show, which involved pirate hats made from newspaper and shadow-puppets she eventually set on fire--but OTOH, I doubt I'll ever see it again myself, since she's moved to Australia to be with her boyfriend. Still...I thought of you.;))

I signed onto my LJ friends just now to send you best wishes for your trip, and now offer condolences; very sorry you had to cancel. It might be small consolation, but maybe this weekend might be a good one to check out Boston Legal -- good for a few nuanced laughs, at least, and quite possibly more. Prayers for your health and well being.

I hope you're feeling better soon, sovay.

I'm so sorry - how very disappointing! But you have re-earwormed me: I had just managed to substitute Katherine of Aragon...

[deliasherman.livejournal.com]

Oh, no! It's bad enough not being able to go to Wiscon (I feel your pain there, since I'm stuck home myself with a bad case of Final Draft). To be sick on top of it, when you'd been scheduled for awesome panels and all, is just the pits. Hope the issues clear up soon, and that there Will Be Treats.

[schreibergasse.livejournal.com]

Ouch! Epic suck! Is this a return of the Lurgi, or something new and different?

Hope you're better next weekend, for tea-related treats.
