Okay, getting dressed and then heading to the #FSNNA22 Gather lobby to try dancing and throwing confetti.

Skipping the first sessions of #FSNNA22 today to have breakfast with my family. Back for the 11 am, then missing the closing session to play D&D.

Today, in Kimberly remembers that scholarly publishing is broken: lots of journals demand either full transfer of copyright or an exclusive license for the full term of copyright, without compensation to the author. Academics often don’t control our IP.

I’m attending “Transcultural Fandom Experiences” at #FSNNA22 but not live-tweeting because I’m prepping for the #FanLIS session, “#FanLIS at Home,” that will run at 12p Eastern.

Super headachey, so probably gonna lie down, may or may not do more #FSNNA22 today.

Me to friend who is also a mom: Want me to drop the water bottle you left at M’s birthday party off at your house?

Her: Yes.

Me: I’ll let you know if I forget to.

Her: Fair enough.

Parents’brains are full, y’all.

W just reminded me we have a Parent-Teacher conference this morning so I actually will miss the first 2 #FSNNA22 sessions today but should be back in time for the keynote.

Up too early and going to sleep a little more. I’m going to miss the first #FSNNA22 session of the day because it’s right during kid-day-prep time, should be around for everything except the last session (kid pickup time) & the vid show (kid dinner time).
