Jo Walton announced this morning that Scintillation, the small con she runs in Montreal, is postponed from this October to next.

I'm disappointed even though I expected this, and even though I doubt they'll be letting ordinary Americans into Canada -- or most other places -- any time soon. Nor should they, even if Massachusetts somehow manages to keep COVID-19 under control when most of the US, including places like California that seemed to be doing a lot better than Massachusetts, aren't.

My appointment book for the next few months contains several medical things, and a haircut that I will probably cancel. (It's two weeks from now, so I don't have to decide yet.) I expect to keep seeing [personal profile] adrian_turtle, but the timing of those visits depends mostly on the weather, and ten-day forecasts aren't much better than climatology.)

While we're dealing with the pandemic, I'm mostly focusing on the next few days, to the extent that fits with keeping the pantry stocked and making sure we don't run out of milk.

The way things are going with the pandemic make me think that in-person FOGCon (March) and WisCon (May) next year may not happen.
