First off I am thinking this congestion that has been plaguing me is a cold and not allergies like I thought over the weekend. I guess the true test will be that if this clears up by tomorrow then I will declare it allergies. All I know is that my head is miserable right now so thinking hurts a bit.

Overall the David Family had a fine convention. Peter signed a lot of stuff for people. Old friends were there to be caught up with and we made some new ones. Ariel got to hang around with one of her best buddies for two days, got a David Tennant doll that she so wants me to make a Casanova outfit for and interviewed William Shatner briefly for her school news paper. Caroline had fun playing with her cousins and just being at the convention. She wore her original Star Trek Captain's shirt on Saturday and was making a lot of people smile.

We spent some time with Jewel Staite and her husband Matt. Caroline declared that Jewel is Princess Jewel and that she is a mermaid which Jewel found amusing. Matt and Caroline worked on a drawing together. At one point I was off to get something for Peter and a fan asked where Caroline was. I pointed to Jewel's table where Caroline was sitting between Jewel and Matt and said," Jewel's babysitting her for me." Which had the fans in line laughing. Over all she was a very good girl. We even got her to share her precious ponies with her cousins after a bit of a melt-down.

I found out about the invention that Dean Haglund created called a Chill Pak that allows to keep the computer CPU running at optimum efficiency. He told us how he had come up with it and how it works. I'm going to have to get one or even two. Www.chillpak.com for more info. I would have gotten one there but he sold out of them within the first two hours of being set up for autographing.

I had a lot of great conversations with a lot of people and had a blast. Now back home I have to deal with the unpacking and the laundry now. Sometime I might get back to writing that NaNo I was keeping up with until the weekend.

I am grateful that we went to the convention.
