Vericon and move planning update

[redbird]

Mostly things are going well: in particular, the cats have passed their pre-flight physicals, and we have the detailed plans for cat moving.

However, in looking at the latest email from the moving company, I noticed that the stated dates for when the moving truck will arrive didn't match what we had thought, and have been planning based on. We looked at the previous emails etc., and those are in fact the dates they gave us all along. There is one day overlap: either way, it's possible the truck will be getting there on the 19th. If it's not until the 20th or 21st, we will cope. We have the apartment in plenty of time (the landlord has already given the keys to adrian_turtle on our behalf, and she is talking about dropping off a tea kettle and other useful objects before we arrive).

This does have the advantage that cattitude and I can make plans involving Vericon. There are people I want to see (rysmiel and I had reached a state of "we'll squeeze in a bit of time once I hear from the moving company" that doesn't fit well with their dislike of last-minute arrangements), and some interesting-sounding programming. (The con dates are March 18-20, which is when we thought the moving truck was due.)

ETA: Vericon dates corrected, thank you Geri.

Um, er, as their website (http://www.vericon.org/) says, "Vericon XVI will run from Friday March 18 2016 to Sunday March 20 2016. It's a standard Friday-Sunday convention, not Thursday-Saturday.

I have a membership and am looking forward to attending as much as I can. I hope with this date correction, it still works out for you and cattitude to attend!

You're right, of course; this goes with my whole confusion about dates here. Thanks.
