shadowravyn--and other zombiephobes--they're thinking of you...Transportation officials in Texas are scrambling to prevent hackers from changing messages on digital road signs after one sign in Austin was altered to read, "Zombies Ahead ( Read more... )

So, I haven't posted just stuff in a while. I should make another post about Intercon Mid-Atlantic, which was moderately awesome, since then, though, we've been busy. And, given that it's Thanksgiving and all, I should be thankful for what I, we, have. Well, I have a super citabria, but more on that below.

Went down to Annapolis for weasel2000 and geochick's wedding and saw lots of people we haven't seen in forever in addition to the celebrating. Hooray.

citabria fell in love with the hotel room we reserved, so we ended up staying another day. She could have a bath, with the whirlpool jets on, munch microwave popcorn, and watch NASCAR because the hotel got the SPEED channel ( Read more... )

She: Look! It's a portable petting zoo!

Harrr! Me beauty and I sailed in me fine Teem Rouge to Willamantic a day ago and we got pair o'fair lookin' plates for her blue ship so she can fly the flag of Connecticut. She got her own papers, too, so that she's now a...a... Avast! What in the Seven Seas do ye call a lass from Connecticut?

...blah blah blah.

Hurm. Haven't written about day-to-day in a long time.

Anyway, over the weekend, citabria drove to her old place in NJ and thence to MD for her FSA business meeting. In NJ, we continued to work on closing up her old place. The major success was getting the last storage unit emptied out so that is no longer draining ( Read more... )

I can't seem to get Google Maps to give me directions from London to Boston anymore. However, I can get from Seattle to Sydney.
