Request

[tikva.livejournal.com]

Hi, everyone. I'm Rachel (the blonde chick with the fuzzy black guide dog), and I have a slightly odd request. I know quite a few of the folks at Baitcon, and I even like a whole bunch of you. :) All the love in the world, however, will not enable me to see you any better, particularly in bright sunlight. So if/when you see me this weekend and you come up to say hi or chat, please let me know who you are so I don't feel like a total dork when I can't necessarily tell. ("Hi, Rachel! It's Murgatroyd. Hey, have you tried the telephone-flavored ice cream yet?") Otherwise I will spend half of Baitcon going, "Oh no, who was that?" While this is hardly your problem, I'll have a much easier time remembering you if I can connect your name with the correct conversations/experiences.

Note that if you have dated me or slept with me or anything like that, you are (of course) exempt from this request - I'm pretty sure I can recognize you by now. JB is also exempt, because he is decidedly Large Print(tm). (It's a compliment, trust me - I know his voice and basic shape).

Also, and I know you all know this already, when Brodie is wearing her harness, she's on duty, and should not be approached or touched. When she's out of harness, she's more-or-less fair game, but it can't hurt to check. Please, for the love of gassy gassy dogs, DO NOT FEED HER. I don't care if she swears to you that she's never been fed in her life, SHE IS LYING. :)

Many thanks in advance for your patience and understanding. Looking forward to seeing folks this weekend!
