Y'all, we had an amazing time! Thank you, thank you to everyone that stopped by to see us (even if I pressed them into working - sorry, sil!) We'll definitely be back next year.

I took over 80 pictures this weekend, so if you really want to see them all, they're at Wonka's Night Out 2006. That's an awful lot of traffic for a Geocities site to ( Read more... )

Thank you, everyone, that urged me to go back to Supercon this year (lookin' at you, arthos). I had a wonderful time, and I really felt like you all welcomed me back with open arms. Thank you, everyone, that told me (over and over again!) that I was being silly to think that you would hate me because of the divorce. I had a great, great weekend ( Read more... )

Wow ... 6 months.

Wow.

Any road, I'm still alive, if anyone else is still around. I'm just not using LJ anymore. I can't access LJ at work, but I can access Blogger. So if any of you feel the pressing urge to keep up with my life (knitting, school, work. That's about it.) you can find me at my new home:

Book 11 of Wheel of Time, "Knife of Dreams" will be released October 11. That's in theory, of course, because Tor's release dates on WoT consistantly suck, but, but...

Or not. I know the entire middle part. I could write that right now. I know the ending, which is an essential thing for me before I begin. I don't have a title, which is a bit worrisome, since I've always ( Read more... )

"There's guilt and conflict inherent in being a modern girl--how does one attain gender equality without devaluing the skills our mothers and ( Read more... )

You know that one lonely sock I knit? It's officially a pair now. Yay!

EWT calls them "The Force" socks, because I have a light side and a dark side. I learned my lesson about not checking dye lots before I start a project.

They were fun to make, though, and I've already started on another pair of socks. I think I'm addicted...
