Turns out there is a fannish media-con happening in Regina today with an attendance of around 10,000. Shows how much I know about what's going on around here! But I haven't had a lot of motivation to keep track since I couldn't go to anything indoors.

Since I haven't gotten quantitative fit testing on an elastomeric mask done yet, I still can't go to this one. But it's really nice to think that, in the foreseeable future, this is something I will be able to do. I haven't been to a convention since before I moved to the Netherlands, which makes it at least four years. Maybe five. I do miss looking at board games for sale and playing them with people, among other things.

Another development in Regina that's happened long since I left town. When I lived there as a teenager, organized fandom of any sort was far, far away. The main comics shop in town was the now-defunct Regina Book Exchange on 1300-block 11th Avenue.
