In about half an hour or so (depending on nail-drying time), apollymi and I will be headed out the door and Georgia-bound. Our bags are packed, and we'll be stopping over in Cuthbert for the evening. Then at about 7:00AM tomorrow we'll finish up the trip to Atlanta to arrive around 10:00AM or so.

Anyone headed that way as well, safe journey! Folks already ( Read more... )

Or, really, be back sometime Saturday sometime. In about twenty apollymi and I will be heading home to do some last-minute packing before hitting the road for Georgia and Thanksgiving. There's also a surprise birthday party for the yami's mum on Friday (her actual b-day is Turkey Day this year, so...) so we'll be staying through until Saturday afternoon ( Read more... )

In about another 12 hours, apollymi and I will be in St. Augustine, enjoying an honest-to-god real not-a-con-therefore-not-really-working vacation (seriously, Necro is turning into a bit of a working vacay since Yami is gonna be selling and autographing copies of Amaranth and Verdant if I ever get through with the edits pre-October). Meaning, in short, I' ( Read more... )

So, if one happens to keep track of the National Hurricane Center's web site, one would know that we currently have 3 different storm systems: Hurricane Earl (and I'm feeling antepathy right now - who wants to possibly die because of a hurricane named EARL??), Tropical Storm Fiona (she's pissed because she can't find Shrek), and... Tropical Depression ( Read more... )

Yami: O.o *mouth moves without words*
Me: ??
Yami: 10 percent of people 24 and younger think it's OK to text during sex, according to consumer electronics shopping and review site Retrevo
Me: :O
Me: that... that... that ain't right.
Me: and if they can text during sex, someone's ( Read more... )

Okay, self, stop procrastinating. You have only 2 prompts left in your 28 character prompts meme, so figure out how to deal with the final two prompts and get it done.

*glares at uncooperative OTP muse, who just stares back impassively*

In lieu of getting any of that done, methinks tonight will be devoted to more proofreading on Verdant so that ( Read more... )

So, apollymi and I were enjoying our day off on the 3rd (benefits of a government job: when Independence Day falls on a Saturday, we get the Friday before off. Sweet!) and taking the time to do some errands; these consisted of me getting a haircut and doing a bit of grocery shopping after we ate lunch.

Well, some of you probably know that my roomie, apollymi, is an author. Her actual professional writing LJ account is katherinewrites and she uses that primarily for updates on her novels (her first novel Amaranth is due out as an ebook in December and in print January). I've read the first draft, and it's starting through the editing process now ( Read more... )
