So, uh. Hi. I've been pretty scarce lately, though I HAVE been keeping up with my DW reading list. I suppose my fleeting desire to blog has mostly been filled by my WoW blog lately. On that note, I've been questioning why exactly I've tried to keep my "Real Life" and my WoW life so separate - mostly because I've started becoming comfortable ( Read more... )

So Aub's dad is getting sent overseas for six months, she's here, her sister's at college, and her brother's going to be staying with her stepmom, so they're cleaning out the house and sending us packages with her stuff. And today came a box full of Aubrey's old school papers, from about 1993-1996. Kindergarten to the beginning of 3rd grade. And ( Read more... )

So I finally stuck our census in the mail today, after having waited in vain for our "Queer the Census" stickers to come. On the bright side, I had (even before seeing this hilarious video with George Takei and his husband) decided that since the only thing holding me and Aubrey back from being legally married was the law, I would mark her as my ( Read more... )

So today was fun ( Read more... )

Supper was wonderful. :D We haven't eaten the pie yet, that's for AFTER the food coma. Chicken Piccata, sweet potato casserole, and mashed potatoes. It was all... more perfect than I could've hoped for. The kitchen's sort of a mess, but not as bad as I'd expected, and Aubrey loved the food, and... I'm happy. I don't know if it's the nummy food ( Read more... )

Only Buffy icon I have, alas. While the dishes in the dish rack dry and the pie crusts warm up a bit, I am here to, y'know, give thanks or something. I know Thanksgiving is a bogus holiday celebrating a fictitious celebration and a few hundred years of genocide and oppression, but... PIE ( Read more... )

• The NaNo is coming... oddly. I'm not doing so bad as I'd hoped, but I'm starting to think I'll need to either tack on an extraneous plot at the end or start the next one just to make my quota. My story's almost done, but I'm only halfway to winning NaNo at MOST.
  
• I will not divulge my word count (though it's much lower than Chris or Ai's), for ( Read more... )

I'm sure not many people will notice, HOWEVER. I'm not going to be online tonight, because Aub and I are going to try to build up a nice Nano word cushion. So when the inevitable busy day or "day we can't get the writing going" or "day we spend all our time doing 'research' in our awesome new crime books" comes, we won't necessarily fall behind ( Read more... )

Oh, also, Aub and I may or may not be online tonight - I have yet to know what she'd like to do, but I know she wanted some alone time for at least PART of today. So if we don't show up until tomorrow, don't worry. We're not dead.

...probably. :D
