With my old email gone, I set up a new registration.
5 or so years after vanishing, I've got a ton of stories to tell. All thanks to my new "job".
I volunteer for multiple conventions, usually as a member of Security. My major focus is on Line Control, but I also work with Accessibility departments... because I'm now in a wheelchair. With a few dips into the A/V world, and some time in Panel Management, you could say that I've been all over the convention sphere.
You may be asking "Why is she back -now-?"
The answer is that I was reminded of the loss of one of our own.
5 years ago, today, we lost Plaidman.
He was a sweet gent who had the misfortune of having a disability which led to his ostracism from the outside, "normal", world.
We were fairly close, and my kids all met him at a zoo meetup in our area.
I was so proud of my heathen children, that day... They saw below his surface, and instantly loved him. And it was heartbreaking to see his surprise at that.
So I'm back. In his memory. And I'll be posting Stories from the Con Floor soon.
