Well, I am happy to say that about 20 minutes ago I finally got the bird in the oven. Since beldar & I are going over to veronica_rich's place for the big meal, I'm pre-baking the turkey today and we will be reheating it tomorrow afternoon. Once the turkey comes out I'll be throwing in the butternut squash to cook in order to make a praline squash casserole (which is ( Read more... )

Yesterday morning veronica_rich went under the knife to have some excess baggage removed from her abdomen (some masses and an organ or two she wasn't using). She's recovering nicely and still pretty stoned ( Read more... )

Going through last minute preparations for Penguicon this weekend. Think I've got everything together and just have to finalize the packing and then I'm ready for tomorrow. We're going up a day early so I can finally go to the Detroit Zoo. Hopefully I won't suffer the problems that __kat__ did when she went to the Louisville Zoo recently. Apparently ( Read more... )

I intended to post this yesterday but wasn't able to due to various fuck-ups. So, here's a wrap-up of what's been going on in my life lately.

Friday evening I got to attend Neil Gaiman's wonderfully charming speech here in town. He received the Kurt Vonnegut Literature Award and loved how beautiful and politically incorrect it was. He was also ( Read more... )
