It's been so long since I've been on LJ I can't believe the account is still active! I've been twittering so long I'm not sure I can write well long form anymore. Maybe I just need to work up to it.

Books: just finished Foxglove Summer

Movies: I can't even remember the last time I saw a movie. Annie?

Soundtrack: The Voice

This here ultimate planner has thrown in the towel. My toe continues to hurt and I'm on my second podiatrist trying to get it fixed. The new job is stressful, and the loss of 20% of my free time isn't helping. I have pulled back. I am actively avoiding making plans. If I'm tired and stressed on Thursdays I am blowing off choir practice. I am up for ( Read more... )

After six months of steam punk accessorizing we went to the steam punk wedding of a close family friend. The happy couple were radiant and the father of the bride was the proudest of papas. Our costumes went over great and the hubby danced with everyone including the father of the groom. I had to sit on the sidelines with my bad toe. Will be seeing ( Read more... )

OK I've been really bad about updating. Let me try to summarize. Elflord and I went to Gencon and sold a lot of stuff and went to a bunch of concerts. When I got back to work I discovered my transfer didn't go through in time so I had to start commuting to Indian Head. This nasty commute has sucked all my energy away, but Monday is my last day ( Read more... )

Man have I been bad about keeeping up with LJ. Sorry. First let me say how much I appreciate the booth help provided by Justhuman. Origins went well for us. We sold a lot of stuff, play tested a good game called Too Big to Fail, and saw half of the Smithee Awards. I got to visit with friends I don't see often enough, and recover a big box of my ( Read more... )

Imagine the Reduced Shakespeare Company doing all 7 Potter books in 70 minutes with 2 people and you'd have Potted Potter. Justhuman, her mom and I really enjoyed it. Age appropriate for little fans but still gobs of laughs for adults. And we played Quiditch! Really ( Read more... )

Drove up to casa de Justhuman yesterday. Her mom made Peruvian chicken that totally rocked. Then I made the mistake of suggesting we watch The Rum Diary. How do you know a movie is bad? When after 90 minutes you turn it off rather than watch the last 30. Even Johnny Depp couldn't make the film watchable. No fault of his - it was the script ( Read more... )

I know it's been ages since I've posted. Since last time I have attended two conventions, two graduations, and three birthday dinners. I guess I was too wiped out to post. I also blew through a book called Timecaster which I recommend. Both our jobs are looking a little wobbly lately, so there's also been some tentative job searching by both of us ( Read more... )

I've spent a lot of time lately getting the house ready for Gameapalooza. I don't know how it gets so messy so fast. I made sure to be ready yesterday instead of tomorrow because the house was due to be the after party for my old supervisor's goodbye party. My company reorganized most of us away from her which is a tragedy for us because she is a ( Read more... )
