So, from Wednesday to Thursday, I moved about 100 spaces up the "Top LJ" chart....today I have gone from #600,000-something, to 40,607! What?!?!?! Still didn't post anything useful...

So, I'm in Chicago this weekend helping to moderate the NAQT High School National quizbowl tournament. There are 176 teams, which is ridiculous! There are kids everywhere. It's cool, though, because the ones that I met last night are actually pretty nice. I have to say, though, that I feel sorry for the people who were having their rehearsal ( Read more... )
