Back from a weekend at Intercon, feeling mildly jazzed and very tired. Intercon Sleep Dep + Baby Sleep Dep is something truly fearful to experience. This morning I'm mainlining green tea until it no longer hurts to hold my weary head up. It was good to see many of my friends, especially those I don't get to see very often. It was also good to show ( Read more... )

Hey there.

terrier_girl and I are heading to Intercon this weekend with V. Terrier is in the Friday night (7 PM) run of Story Wars and has a fairly costume intensive character. I'd like to help her with her makeup. Is there anyone willing to hang out with us in our room for about half an hour and help entertain/care for the baby between 6 PM and 6:45 PM ( Read more... )

So I've made it to the Emerald City (Seattle). I had a moment of rationality on the long flight here that let me see just how crazy it is for me be here now, but thankfully it passed quickly. Now I'm perfectly tickled to be the farthest from home I've ever been, in reach of the Pacific ocean which I've never seen, and across the rockies which I've ( Read more... )

Au Bon Pain was the only 24 hour food near the hospital. I was there for six days and by then, I was truly sick of it. Since then they've been plaguing me. Every time I turn around they're there. Today at the airport I want some coffee. The only option inside security? You got it. And here at 30th street station in Philly? You guessed it ( Read more... )

My horrible, terrible, no good week is over. I've staked it though the heart, cut off it's head, stuffed it's mouth with wafers and garlic and burried it at the crossroads in an unmarked grave ( Read more... )

terriergirl and I are OK, given stuff. We had a ?good? Rites and were home for a week. Now I'm off to my seminary retreat. Then I come back and close on the house.

Feel free to drop Terrier a line while I'm a way. She may be looking for company.

Pagans have plenty of calendars to choose from. Even the standard neo-pagan (which is something like a neo-pet, but with the rabidity of a neo-conservative) has a calendar that is a bastard step child of both the Irish-Celtic calendar and the Roman calendar. The high holidays, those that occur on the solstices and equinoxes (equini?) are the roman ( Read more... )

This weekend a couple of friends of mine got stranded in Philadelphia. I had initally planned to go with them, but it conflicted with some other long standing plans. Then, when the plans melted away I gave them a call, just as they were pushing the car out of the tool booth in Jersey. So I jumped in the car and headed out as some friends in Philly ( Read more... )

Went to VA for the weekend. Had a good time. Saw a bunch of people I only see once in a while. Went to the science museum and out for sushi. Got to soak in the hot tub. (Yay, hot water.) Didn't contact ShyGuy or kyrielslight which was my own damn fault. But maybe next time ( Read more... )
