Had Convolution last weekend. Cute. Fun. Helped run the game room. I am finding myself increasingly done with conventions, both working and attending. Yeah, parties are fun, but I widely find myself with nothing to do. I don't find panels interesting, I have no passion for meet and greets with authors or actors, and there is so. much. drama. that ( Read more... )

It's been a month and I am finally home! My room has a ceiling and walls again! Granted, this is a temporary fix. I am currently on an air mattress, the walls & ceiling need to be painted, and they are still determining if I'm getting new carpet or adding padding and stretching the old one (please get new please get new please please please please ( Read more... )

So, I've been living in a hotel for the past 2 weeks and it looks like I'll be there for 2-3 more. My apartment got flooded by the 3rd story water heater exploding. That in turn, flooded the 2nd story apartment below, which then flooding mine. My room is destroyed as is my bed and a few photo albums and books (but you know, only the handmade stuff ( Read more... )

This last week has been rough for me. Within the past 12 days, I've had 3 friends die. One died from her 8 month battle with leukemia, the second had surgical complications for a heart procedure at a VA hospital, and the 3rd had a kidney failure that went septic (from what I understand). All three of these people had a rather close connection with ( Read more... )

BayCon went well! Much better than I anticipated. Then again, I didn't know what to expect so I could roll with stuff a hellofalot easier than those who are more set in their ways. Apparently, this was a really good year. On my end, there was very little issues. Only one that really should have been brought to my attention (regardless of the hour) ( Read more... )

2 days til BayCon (for me anyways, the FUN [or some other "F" word] starts Thursday). Running around, getting it all done. Still have pictures to print, stuff to write, and heads to bash should they stand in my way, but I've gotten a lot done! Still gotta make the Con run to Costco for drinks, snacky bits, and all around sanity check. And I have ( Read more... )

Working through my room with a big overhaul. I admit it - I'm a bit lazy.My room has gotten to the point where I have a patch of floor to stand on while the remaining flat surfaces (exluding my bed) is covered with knick knacks, brick a brack, books, and clothes. I have SO much crap! If I attempted to tackle my room all at once, I would either A.) ( Read more... )

It's been an interesting first quarter of the year. I had surgery on my elbow from getting hurt at work and am currently still healing from it. It's getting better slowly and surely. For those who don't know, Back in Feburary of last year,  I was injured at karate. Never fulling healing from it, in October, I was injured at work - same elbow, and ( Read more... )

A lot of words have been exchanged over the past couple of days. First off is finally talking with a supervisor for the front office of my doctor (and I currently use that term lightly). She gave me a lot of words about steps she took to ensure that my kind of treatment won't happen again. Apparently there's a lack of documentation in their office ( Read more... )

Wow. So after staying away for a year, a lot, and yet, nothing earth shattering has happened. Let's see if I can start where I left off ( Read more... )
