I admit, there's one thing I'm grateful about not having been to any cons lately. I'm really bad with faces/names of people I don't know REALLY well. I spend a lot of time at cons staring at the stupid name badges, which are ALWAYS backwards, trying to grind my memory into gear.
I'm terrible with names, and it doesn't help that not everyone uses their name/face on here! I'd like to be able to hug them, once it's safe.
