You know how LJ can send you email reminders about your friends' birthdays? Well, I have an email from December 2012 sitting there unread reminding me to wish Jules, and I still keep looking at it thinking, "Oh, yeah, I've got to get around to that," as though it came a few weeks ago or something. Around November of this year I started getting ( Read more... )

I need to re-schedule LJ hour. This whole Tuesday night thing is not working. I thought it would get better when we stopped traveling/having family over, but then my schedule changed at work and I have to re-arrange my life anyway. By the time I get to babble about Dragon*Con it will be next year! I almost could do it now, except I have food that ( Read more... )

Oops, I just spent my whole hour backreading and commenting, so I will have to write about the awesomeness of Dragon*Con and Jules and the ATL next week. Or maybe Thursday, because next week Ash's parents are coming and I am doing the food pantry schedule. On the one hand, what could be better than nearly a week's worth of meeting a new Best Friend ( Read more... )

Happy Birthday to Nundu!
I'm going to Atlanta!
For friends and trivia and Dragon*Con!
Eeee!
That's it for this week. When I get back, Tuesday nights should be back on schedule.

No, it's not Tuesday night, but I will not have power tomorrow night. We're looking at a week without power, yay. (I'm at a giant shopping center that has underground wires. Power companies should start going back and burying old wires, not just new ones ( Read more... )

Ooh, I have been so looking forward to writing more about That School Where I Worked that I really can't bring myself to think for more than five seconds about if there's anything worth asking or telling from the past week. I guess the highlight was running into a family that comes to the library a lot at the park and getting the father and little ( Read more... )

Yes, so I broke my resolution to LJ for an hour last Tuesday night. But that is because I was on vacation! To Disney World! And the Wizarding World of Harry Potter!

I'm going to write a really long, memory-preserving type post, but here are the useful parts other people going might want to know.

1) Security in Orlando's airport is slower than in any ( Read more... )

Okay, this time I wasn't even composing updates in my head. Time flew by even too quickly for that. But, as I was nudged (thank you, genesse) over a week ago and the rain means I'm not going to be attempting to fix gutters, testing our newly repaired lawnmower, or adding weatherproofing to the garage and patio doors, hi!

I have not died. What I did was ( Read more... )

It seems like ever since I left CT I've just been on this streak of experiencing new things, a lot of the time things I'd never really thought I needed to experience. Lately, though, I've begun a few things I've for a long time been so curious about, iconic sorts of things that dangle above your life ( Read more... )

Hi! Am posting because I am in India and isn't that cool? I have some free time because everyone else is off seeing the tigers, which I'm not well enough to do ( Read more... )
