Although coming back from vacation, finding I'd thrown out my back from sleeping on an uncomfortable bed, just barely recovering from that before catching "something" that didn't like my digestive tract, leading to yesterday being a haze of being sick, means I feel like I'm only coming through in waves ( Read more... )

Tonight I visit my parents, and I'll finally tell them about the diagnosis. I've been trying to come to grips with it myself, and wanted to be settled enough to handle it if they go nuts. That's also why I've been keeping these private so far, I haven't told anyone in the family ( Read more... )

There'll be food and games, please come if you can!

I'm not going to LISA this year. I'm okay with it, I've certainly been enough recent years in a row, and the coworker who's going instead has never been there. Hopefully he'll have as enlightening a time as I would :)

That means I'm free to instead go to GASP CON, which would have been cut in half by travel back from San Jose, and I believe that ( Read more... )

Because I've already got two nigh-direct queries as to my availability this weekend, we've been booked for almost a year now to go to Chuck-a-Con, a local gaming convention. It's small and new and needs all the attendees that it can get, so we go because we can ( Read more... )
