I have spent most of the day critiquing dissertation chapters for my sister and fielding phone calls about work issues. And also making vague story notes. And also also wishing the rain would stop.

Tonight I'm going to see Vienna Teng, which should be awesome.

No exciting future things on the near horizon, so I shall be vicariously excited for yours!

O HAI! I haven't talked to you in ages! Vienna Teng sound totally awesome. I hope you have an excellent time!

I have to settle travel to NY still. And none of my panelists have replied to my e-mail, so I had better do some moderation planning without them. Oh, and um, do you want to play Once Upon A Time with me for practice?

I'm writing about a wife and mother as she gets ready to engage in guerrilla warfare to overthrow a dictator and (hopefully) get her husband out of prison in the process.

It's kind of hard going, actually.

Sorry about the hard going.

It's a little draining to dig in deep and find your fears and nightmares and sorrows then put them into words. Especially when your preferred mode is to avoid deep introspection.

(My computer freezing didn't help any...)

We share the same birthday! :-)

skogkatt May 21 2011, 00:39:25 UTC

Yes! That was one of three things that made me decide to friend you to begin with (the other two were that you had said something interesting on someone else's blog, and that you listed Liselotte von der Pfalz in your interests). I enjoy sharing a birthday with you!

See you at WisCon!!

skogkatt May 21 2011, 00:39:52 UTC

Yay! I am looking forward to it!

I just posted the first of two Xxxholic fanfics for a fest where the fans write a better ending than CLAMP did for the series. I enjoyed giving my favorite manga pairing a cozy growing-very-old-together ending. (art of them as teenagers in my icon)

I also need to make myself work on adoption-homestudy-renewal paperwork! We are off the list now because of procrastination and a depressing, draining winter. Thank goodness things have gotten better, though I'm still slogging away in my sadly non-career job.

So you'll be at Wiscon when I'm at Balticon. We can post about our respective con-awesomeness!

Thanks for posting the Takei-ness: I want one of those buttons! I like the idea one of the commenters had about sending buttons to the Tenn. governor.
