pre-WisCon post

I'm mostly packed for WisCon. I'm wide awake, though I should be trying to sleep NOW since I have to get up before 5 a.m. Bleh. I can hardly wait for WisCon, in spite of my usual massive pre-travel angst. I won't be online much until I get home next week.

In non-WisCon news, the big soap news of today is that Disney has opted to cancel SOAPnet in 18 months and replace it with a station for preschoolers. Um...because preschoolers watch so much TV after 11 pm? There had been rumors about SOAPnet getting the axe, but everyone had expected it to be replaced by "women's programming." Very odd. (When the news broke, it was such a shocker that it crashed Daytime Confidential's server.)

Oh, and my Books To Bring on the Plane poll is tied between The Robber Bride and Faro's Daughter, so I'm bringing 'em both...
