There are two things that are the absolute high and low of the convention. And they concern one person. Inkognitoh.

She hates me. I can live with that. I certainly don't hate her. She's fun of fun and taking a great delight in the convention. And that's the high point. There is nothing about this convention that pleases me more than that she is here, because I was afraid that she missed the wonderful UnConvention last year because I turned up, and I wouldn't want anyone to deny themselves a pleasure because of me.

But I haven't been able to reconcile with her, or even to agree to disagree or something. She doesn't want me to respond to her in any way whatsoever. How can I respect that and still have anything like a workable relationship?

Last night at trivia the support team were all in uniform t-shirts, and folk were taking photographs of us. Including Inko, and I'm pretty sure that she was aiming off to one side to exclude me from the shot. ***sigh***

All the more bitter because she gave the absolute best possible quote of the convention: "I just love this - all of my imaginary friends are real!"

I guess the two things balance.

Having a wonderful time here. Too busy to give details, but I didn't get to bed until about twoish this morning. Have to be gone at oh-dark-early tomorrow, so I didn't drink the sun up, but oh, am I having fun!

Perhaps I should just let it go, but if you look at this it's hard to avoid the sense of tension. I don't think that I've had any interaction with her that warrants this sort of treatment, but I'm quite happy to apologise, again, if there has been any offence taken.

Looking at her LJ, Inko has apparently made no posts on the convention, but I am able to report that judging by her happy smile, she had a great time!

As did everyone else. It was an absolute blast and you need to brace yourself for Americans flying in next year by the jumbo-load!

ouch, that is harsh!

I *heart* you Pete! If only for your TimTams ;)

(((hugs))) Pete - but maybe you are just trying too hard to get her to respond to you?

Best to just let it go - you have countless other friends who adore you!

I don't think she wants to respond, and frankly, I'm not spending much time working out why. This is for me to have a whinge about. The one uncomfortable point in an otherwise marvellous trip.
