Wincon Info About Me

phantismaOkay. It occurs to me to toss out some factoids for those I may meet and greet in LA.
1) I answer to Amara and Natalie both fairly regularly. Several people have taken to calling me Ams, and I'm good with that. Unless you know me really, really well, I'd stay away from Nat. It has some nasty connotations from my youth.
2) Um...I'm the large sorta red-head...*for picture of me go here*...That's me...more or less, the hair is darker and shorter. I'm pretty hard to embarrass, though I don't always handle flattery with a graciousness that is even approaching acceptable. I have some crippling social anxiety at strange moments, and will withdraw myself to a quiet place to pull myself together if needed.
3) I may have issues reading porn out loud during Story Time...but I have no qualms about talking about it. In fact, I enjoy talking about sex and kink...and I have me some kinks...but then, if you're reading this, you probably already know that.
4) I am bringing stuff to give away. Ask for it.
5) I am bringing my tarot cards. If you see me playing with them and want me to read for you, ask. I'll probably be willing to do so. If I ask you to come back another time, don't think I'm blowing you off. It means exactly that. I'm probably not in the right head space at that particular moment.
6) I'm flying in tomorrow (we'll be there between 3:30 and 4) and leaving Monday around 10am. I'm sure we'll be gathering somewhere to partake of Thursday's Winchesterness...
7) If I'm looking or acting scattered and unable to focus, ask if I've eaten. I'm diabetic and can forget to take care of my body well in con settings. I get spacey and strange when I don't eat. Well, more spacey and strange than is normal for me.
8) If I'm kind of boxed in by people and walls, and I look like I'm sweating and looking for an exit, kindly make one for me. I've been known to pick up 300 lb men when they didn't. It's an absolutely phobic reaction and I don't want to hurt anyone.
9) If I hold open my arms when you come toward me, it's a pretty good bet I want a hug. If I don't hold open my arms, it doesn't necessarily mean I don't...but maybe I'm not entirely comfortable or I'm feeling claustrophobic or something.
Okay all that aside? I'm really excited about this. Now I need to go finish getting my stuff together.
