Work has been very busy and while waiting for my last bus home, I discovered that I'd lost my IPod. I've had the bloody thing for 5+ years, but still relied on it for podcasts. I called the the lost and found, but frankly can't imagine anyone turning it in. Will have to decide after Christmas if I wanna get another one.

I called into work tonite. In over 3 years at the store this is only my second time calling in. The first time was just after the first FE, where someone brought a Norwalk virus to the con. Tonite feels almost as bad and I feel bad for not going in and hope I didn't let the team down. The last few weeks have been rough and it's only gonna get worse ( Read more... )

Picked my new 20' LCD flat screen monitor today. It finally replaces my clunky old 15' and what a difference it makes. I now realize what a much nicer picture I have. It wasn't the one I was going for which wasn't on sale anymore. The one my brother suggested was $50 more than I'd expected to pay, but I figured so what. When I went to pay for it, ( Read more... )

Earlier today I was laying in bed and I the bed started moving. I thought that either the cat had jumped on or I was nuts. Fast forward a few hours, and I discover that there had been an earthquake today in the US that was felt all the way up here. Nice to know that no one was seriously hurt and that I'm not nuts.

When I planned on making this post, it was gonna be about how slow work was last night, upcoming plans for the weekend and how much I an looking forward to MFM. Instead momentarily, ago it took a turn for the worse ( Read more... )

Just got back from Buffalo and now I have my bus ticket in my grubby little hooves. I'll be arriving in Memphis with Phil Thursday nite at a cheap hotel and then arriving at the con hotel the next day and leaving on the Monday. Frankly I'm looking forward to this con as work has been very tiring lately. There's been a lot of drama and the guy I'm ( Read more... )

Just got back from this con an hour ago. I hadn't really planned on going, but things just fell into place. I'd like to thank Pakesh De, Blindsight and Shane for giving me a lift to London. I'd only planned on spending the day there, but decided I might as well spend the night. It was a pretty good decision, as I had a great time. I picked up a ( Read more... )

Just got the news that I'll be going to the con Condition Red today. many thanks go out to Pakesh De, Shane and Blindsight. It was a last minute thing and I'd pretty much resigned that it wasn't gonna happen, when I got Pak's phone call. It'll be my first visit there and my third of four con's I'll have hit this year.

Next up, MFF.
