Of course I brought the wrong damn book, but I can actually review time expressions now and so direct people in time to the event they want to go to! So, that's not so bad.
(У вас) Всё в порядке? Is everything okay?
Сколько сейчас времени? What time is it?
Сейчас ...час/часа/часов. It is ...o'clock
В сколько ... At what time is the...
шествие? маскарад? круглый стол о(б)? parade? masquerade? panel on?
В сколько откроет ресторан/автографы/фото... When does the restaurant/autographs/photographs open...
в ...час/часа/часов At .... o'clock.
Откроет в ...час/часа/часов. (Я думаю, автографы откроет в десять часов. Фото на приём. на встречу. Можно записываться на приём на стол там/близкий комнате автографы). [they] open at ... o'clock. (I think the autographs open at ten. The photos by appointment. You can ... I just realized this is entirely wrong. Let me start again.)
Есть час для каждого фото с актёром. Можно купить билет (для фото с актёром) на стол там/на стол близкий комнате автографы.) There is a time for each photo with the actor. You can buy a ticket for the photo with the actor at the table there/at the table by the autographs room.
Драгон Кон откроет в десять часов? в восемь часов?
Регистрация откроет в десять часов? в восемь часов? Я не знаю!

Tomorrow: Giving. Damn. Directions. And telling people that Dragon*Con staff have red lanyards and things like that.


Which is easier than pasting that giant gob of Russian which I now need to print out and practice at some point. maybe later today. It's not even that much to memorize compared to the plays and things I used to memorize, and in Russian (or German) I'm fluent enough that it makes sense to me, so my brain won't balk and go "IT'S JUST NOISES." Still argh.

So, I'm just speculating right now, but I could totally turn this Nerd Girls thing into a series. Okay, screw speculating, the way this thing is turning out it's likely it will become a series. How quickly and efficiently that happens is another thing entirely. But in the meantime I'm checking to see how much of a series I can make of it. Nerd Girls Save The World is the first one, but after that, then what?

I should actually stop thinking about Nerd Girls and start thinking about Black Ice, since now is the hour on Sprockets when I start pulling edits out of the docs. Eep. After that comes macro edits, if there are any (I think there are), and after that comes formatting, and after that comes print formatting. Though I might just say 'fuckit' and rel... well. If I strip all the edits out and realize that I don't actually have much more in the way of macro edits to do, that means I can just format everything and set it to release at or just after Dragon*Con. And isn't that a terrifying thought. Especially since then I need to get started on ramp-up publicity YESTERDAY. Or actually a month ago.

This is the moment when I tell myself to get the fuck off of Dreamwidth and get back to doing things because you're spending too much time talking about doing things and not enough time doing them, isn't it. Yes? Yes.
