    Still not sure exactly what all I'm supposed to be doing on those panels, or do there as a GOH, but they assured me they'd let me know when I get there Friday!

    When I find out when things like the feast, dance parties, and any other activities are I'll post them, too. I heard that things really don't get started around there until after 4 or 5pm on Friday, and there's nothing planned for Sunday.

    I plan on sleeping late that day!
