HI GUYS
Oh, dear internet friends! Hello! I have missed you! And it's all my own damn fault, but I'm determined to actually be around more now, and both of my kids are in school (WHAT) part of the day four days a week now, so I think it is actually possible this time. I've been pretty busy, guys! But Thorin starting school in August was pretty amazing, as ( Read more... ) -
Look! A Baby!
Sooo... Hi, y'all! Updates have been thin on the ground in recent months mostly because I have been so tired and full of hormones, and while I am somewhat less full of hormones I am now even more tired so I'm not sure when I'll get back to my usual chatty self, but -
I had a baby! This is him:

At Least the Characters Look Right
Tonight at Target I saw a My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic board book. I flipped through it while Jameson hovered impatiently over my shoulder, then put it in my basket.

It's Oooover
Jimmy and I finished our first run-through of Mass Effect 3. I am full of feelings, mostly of the "augh story in which I was very emotionally invested has now ended" variety. We only did one ending (I bet anyone who knows me can guess which one!), but I am totally open for SPOILERY DISCUSSION of any of them, if any of y'all have played and want ( Read more... ) -

Sourdough Attempt The First
So I made some bread today! The recipe indicated that it'd take up to fourteen hours for the first rise, and our sourdough culture laughed in the face of that estimate.

Con or Bust
I suspect that some of you will be interested to know that Belle and Claire are getting the old band back together and offering up elements of the next Dorgian Galaxy novelette in the Con Or Bust auction this year. Bidding starts on the 11th!

Hobbies of Several Kinds
In accordance with my sort-of resolution thingy, I have been reading from my TBR collection. Go me! Also, not buying any new books. Go me some more!
I read (among other things) Primary Inversion by Catherine Asaro, which I liked very much indeed, though the copy I have on my e-reader is full of copy-editing-type errors. Extra or missing words, ( Read more... ) -
Resolved
I didn't make any resolutions for the new year, mostly because I never remember that that is a Thing that one might wish to do, but I have one as of today! It is this: I resolve to get through at least half of my freakishly huge TBR shelf, which includes not only multiple actual physical shelves but also a ton of space on my e-reader ( Read more... )
