okay so this is confusing
I've known about this for maybe a week and a half and am only getting around to posting now, but - apparently I'm going to New York again?
Essentially - got back from New York 2 weeks ago. Slept on my bed instead of a couch; ate my food, did my routine, went to the local SFF con and to work and visited friends over the holidays; and when I got back from the holiday, was asked, by work this time, to go back to New York to help out the local office, after someone left.
So a few days they booked me a flight, and I guess I'm flying out again tomorrow /o\ I am happy to get a chance to visit again, and not pay for [most things] this time, but it's also all just kind of disorienting. I haven't had time for much preparation; it's 3AM and I've spent the evening looking for accommodation (which grrrr work should have just asked a travel agent to do), emailed options to my boss, and now I'm about to finish a packing list so I can... start... packing. Tomorrow morning I go to work till the afternoon, then head out to the airport. Hopefully by the time I land, an apartment rental of some kind will have been booked!
I'm not kidding about disoriented; I only discovered like 5 minutes ago that my flight is United and not El Al like I'd thought. I am... tired and confused. I'm also trying to figure out whether to take both my personal computer and my work computer, or to just go with the work one and log into all my fandom accounts from there, blah. A month - a yuletide month - is something I'd be more comfortable with my own laptop with, but... we'll see.
(Speaking of which: if you know of any yuletide writing groups in New York, please let me know about them! Who known MAYBE I'll actually write my assignment IN ADVANCE like an organized person!)
Okay - off to packing. For real now. Yup. Realsies.
