( Another busy month )

( A short month, but very busy... )

Looks like Gil's in charge now, at least until his dad recovers. Poor guy. I hope he and his girl can settle down and be happy soon.

I met Sam's elf-friend. I don't know why Sam thought this would bother me so much. I guess he just hasn't realized how messed up I and almost everyone I know is already ( Read more... )

We'll start with a quote: To be nobody but yourself in a world which is doing its best night and day to make you like everybody else means to fight the hardest battle any human being can fight and never stop fighting.

I picked up some protection charms for the kids, from Maria. Though it's so hard to make sure Clara has these things... ( Read more... )

Anyone else feel like swearing at other peoples' deities too? I find it really hard to believe that a man who built his own pacemaker into a suit of super-armor is this dumb. And yet he is!

In non-Registration news, it seems that Jedi isn't. But he is good with kids. Go figure. And I got jelly babies from that female Doctor, who seems to think I'm too young to be Alured's mom. I keep trying to remind myself that someday it'll be a compliment.

I took Mortimer's advice and assigned a short paper, in which the students have to rewrite one of the stories they've read this year from a new point of view ( Read more... )

The Count's going to look for his son.

And he's asked me to sit and wait for him to come back. I don't deal well with sitting and waiting. So, fair warning, I may get unreasonably cranky while he's gone.

On the other hand, I met a nice fellow named Gabriel.

And I think I may have scarred poor young Sam for life. Vetinari isn't that scary, is ( Read more... )

So. I'm getting married. I still can't quite think past that. So much for starting the planning early I guess.

I want to have a party. A quiet one. Tea, or brunch, this weekend. Which might turn into a baby shower for Otto and Angel and Hope. Speaking of which, you guys, when are you free for that?

Little Sam is, it seems, all grown up now ( Read more... )
