Soon shrag and I will embark on our first trip since the pandemic began. I'm excited to go back to the Rio for the 55 Year Mission Tour (formerly STLV). For reasons unknown the con is no longer an official star trek event, but I like the way they run things and we'll see if Star Trek : Mission Chicago turns out to be worth the investigation. Right now I'm focusing on one thing at a time.

The job search continues, and while at the moment I can only report waiting on a few interviews, I am on unemployment which covers essentials for now but of course the money does mean I have to pick and choose on some things. But that being said, I'm glad it's there and as the first time I've ever taken advantage of it I do appreciate it.

I'm not really concerned about traveling, we're both vaccinated and I will bring my mask, with the Delta variant becoming a thing it seems prudent though it does disappoint me as I was looking forward to being unmasked for a while, but I'll live. I'd rather do the safe thing for myself and others though I do hope to be able to take them off for photos.

Most of the con preparations are made, I've even bought myself a Star Trek uniform. ;) I think the shirt is a bit tight but sadly I don't have time/money to do better before the con, so it'll do. It'll be my first time in Vegas as Lauren. ;)

I do plan to probably bring my laptop just so I can stay on top of things, but other than that we will see. Videos will be scheduled and I need to figure out what I have so I can release some of the finished writing I have and get some things to friends for beta reads.

More coming soon.
