Long time no squee!
It has been a very long time since I've updated. So short short version. Still working at MBS, have successfully settled into duplex (have hit yard sales aplenty to acquire enough shelves and furniture)and almost have everything where I want it. Life is good.
Been to Archon again this year and had an awesome time even though it was a bit more subdued than in years past thanks to the boneheads who now manage what is now the Double Tree hotel in Collinsville. No official con hotel means no room parties legit or otherwise and no all night hospitality room or video rooms or just general hanging out until the sun comes up spaces. So yes being restricted to the Gateway Center was a bit subduing. Still it was a chance to hang out with friends, meet new people and spend money on things like art and tarot cards and books and patches. The steampunk theme for the dance was nice, I had no idea that steampunk was very 'in' right now. Goes to show that I'm behind on the times. But all in all a very fun con weekend.
Probably the only reason I'm actually getting around to updating is because it is once again that season... The season of NaNo. I really must come up with a respectable Idea and get some planning done in the next few weeks. We'll see how that goes. If I were a betting woman, I'd have to be a pessimist and bet against myself. But who knows maybe I'll be wrong.
