Hello from the Inland Empire + London

Yes, where the sun is hot, the humidity is nil, and the elevation is…considerable. Very inland. Much empire. It's weird here in ways that I can't describe--like, it really is not dense population wise, and it's so spread out. It's like New Jersey, maybe, if you stretched New Jersey out like…something that stretches. Also, so many palm trees.

I've been lucky, though, in that I've been meeting up with people I haven't seen in a while while I'm here, and that the traffic has thus far failed to be horrendous. And I'm leaving on Saturday afternoon for Japan, which is exciting.

So, it's looking like I'm going to be in London from 24-27 August. Does anyone have crash space? I can provide Turkish delight! Failing that, does anyone want to meet up during that time frame? I will be at WorldCon and NineWorlds, but the latter only sporadically.
