    <content type="html">Talis ran the Dragon's Lair (children's program) this year, with some help from me pre-con. At-con, I was her lackey. :-) She did a great job of it, enlisting the help of 4 friends, and keeping control of some large number (overall total in the range of 20-25) of smalls, more than expected. SJ, Betsy, Ben and Heather did a wonderful kid's concert today, Bruce Coville told some new stories on Friday, Mad Hatter Hats went over very well on Saturday morning, a major mess was made (feathers and paper scraps all over), and a good time was had by all. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Down side: we get home, I fall into bed, and am woken by Talis saying her computer is not in her (very scruffy looking raggedy) purple backpack. I called RK, who says it is not in the are of the Galleria we were in. I called the hotel, and the insurance company and Apple/the Apple Store... and because tomorrow is a holiday, progress will be delayed. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A backup has not been made recently. Time machine exists in this house, and she has a hard disc drive, but has been relying on Dad to do the work. I fear this will be (yet) another expensive learning experience, as she has pictures and writing that are not anywhere else. *sigh*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=persis&amp;ditemid=11473" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/&gt; comments</content>
