January is evidently [Hot Tea Month], which I thoroughly approve. Though I enjoy hot tea all year round (with the exception of the worst days of summer), the contrast between the extreme cold of winter and the warmth of a hot drink makes it all the more delectable. It's one of my favourite things about winter! So grab some tea (or other hot drink ( Read more... )

Gah, I am just tangled up in words that won't come out right, written or spoken. (Fannishly-speaking. Am mostly doing okay in the Real World. And I just had a lovely weekend with propinquitine, in which we took in some history at Independence Park and had many chats accompanied by food and tea, all of which made me miss having local friends so much. *fails at ( Read more... )

I don't remember if I've mentioned before, but I really love buying tea from Lana's The Little House! She always includes a hand-written note. Just a few words written on the order slip, but it's so nice and friendly to have that personal touch! :) She mostly sells Harney & Sons and her own blends.

Today I volunteered to help out with the commencement ceremony at Villanova. I had to get up rather earlier than I prefer to on a Sunday morning, but it was actually a fun experience. My task was herding faculty into the appropriate seats, and they herded fairly well. Then I stuck around for part of the ceremony so I could get more of a glimpse ( Read more... )

I'm pretty sure my new coworkers are pleased with me. But, just in case, I have now secured my awesomeness with cookies.

Cookies are always a good way to win love at the library, I find. ;)

Most importantly: Hallo, flist! ♥ Miss you all. I've been rushing through for poetry posts, but I only have time for quick glances at the flist. I am going CRAZY for pretty much all of April, apparently. I have hopes that May will be at least slightly less so (but no less awesome!) because I really would like a chance to catch my breath at ( Read more... )

I don't know if any of you watch amplificathon, but they had a "podbang" challenge to record super-long (big bang long) stories as podfic and they started posting today. Sadly, there will be nothing in my beautiful voice, but there will be many many hours of podfic to listen to, so check it out @ amplificathon! And make sure to leave comments for the readers because they ( Read more... )
