Not going to Worldcon

I have a full membership for Dublin. I can afford to go money-wise. I can't afford it spoon-wise.
I made this decision last year, when it was rapidly approaching the time when I'd have to confirm with a friend whether I was going to be sharing a hotel room. I was hoping that I would have recovered enough from assorted medical mishaps by now, but I knew it was unlikely and it wasn't fair on the other three potential members of the party to cross fingers and wait. And no, I'm not up to it, even though I'll miss seeing my friends and going to interesting panels. Have fun, the rest of you, and bring back interesting stories.
