"Don't waste any time mourning. Organize!"
-Joe Hill
My brother texted the family group chat this quote before he went to work today. I'm not in a good place this morning, but we can't lose ourselves to despair. I know I have a lot of anger right now, but getting into whose fault that is won't help anyone.
Dwelling on the people I will never forgive won't help anyone.
I'm not that optimistic, but hope is a choice we can still make. It's a hard one to make this morning, but I'm still going to do my best. We are where we are, and focusing on yesterday won't change that. We can only move forward, and save as many as we can along the way.
There will be a tomorrow because we're going to make sure there's a tomorrow.

We hold most of our meetings in Secaucus, NJ (Northern NJ) while our con is in Atlantic City, NJ (Southern NJ) – about two hours apart. So, it might not dawn on someone that there’s a problem 🙂 Yeah, I realize that cons of the size of Bork & Unagi probably have less of an issue like this but it does happen.
Oh, I know — there are two anime cons in the Wisconsin Dells, WI.
One of them holds their meetings in Eau Claire, WI (which I am on the staff for)
The other holds their meetings in Stevens Point, WI.
(This is because both cons started in the cities where they’re run from, but growth and — frankly — hotels getting torn down forced both of them to move)
Yup, that’s our story too. Growth moved the con but the meeting site is closer to where most of us live.
With no Bork Con, will they all get roped into working on Unagi Con? Tune in next week….
