The waffling is over!

I'd been going back-and-forth about Botcon. On one hand, it's local to me this year, and I'm not going to be experiencing health complications to keep me home like last year. On the other hand, being a SAHM, I have no income, and the money in my personal savings account has to keep me in writing classes and entertainment until Squiddle and any possible siblings are ideally in elementary school. The Minicon membership (which two of my friends have offered to let me tag onto their Primus memberships) is $110. Which is not a lot until you realize it's over a month's budget for me. Plus I'm breast-feeding my son, and my cousin is getting married on the Saturday of the convention, so I'd only be doing a half-day then at most....

So I was waffling. Then okami_myrrhibis called, and in passing mentioned one of the GoHs.

SUSAN BLU. Not only did she voice Arcee, and Stormer in Jem and the Holograms, she voice-directed Transformers Beast Wars, Transformers Animated, a chunk of Transformers Prime until her wife's death caused her to take time off, but also both seasons of Dreamworks Dragons. Basically, every cartoon series that I've truly enjoyed in the last ten years has gone through her hands. I have been wishing for Botcon to get her as a GoH for YEARS.

I am SO going to Botcon!

And, as a treat for those who've stuck with me through this evocation, some new (to me, anyway) fan designed Transformers shirts....
