One more: had to share

I got a great thank-you gift from the con committee, that I just had to share pictures of.  It included a great tote bag (I’m all about the great tote bags!)… a funny bumper sticker that I haven’t quite decided where I’ll put it… Also, a BYU mug for my love of hot chocolate, and … Read more

What a weekend

I’m finally home, to a sunny and slightly warm Seattle afternoon. Opened all the windows in my apartment to air it all out, a little disappointed at the mess I left behind in all my hurry to leave for the airport Wednesday morning. The weekend at LTUE was really great. The committee and all involved … Read more

Theraflu uckiness, entertainment choices

So like I said, I have another sinus infection. My doctor gave me a long list of things to try before and during my airplane travel so that the infection doesn’t get worse from the pressure. I’ve never tried Theraflu before. Man, that’s really gross stuff. Bitter. But I’m doing what I can. I also … Read more

Drive by posting

As I’ve been preparing my talk for LTUE, one theme keeps coming up in pondering the role of an editor, and how an editor is often a collaborator in the writing process. All the ideas and writing should come from the writer, but the editor has a shaping influence on that process through the questions … Read more

LTUE itinarary and schedule

I’ve already posted my panel schedule for LTUE before, but it’s less than two weeks away, so I thought a reminder might be in order for anyone heading to that. It’s free, so it’s an especially good networking opportunity for anyone in the area. Also, I have a confirmed schedule for when I’ll be arriving … Read more

Mystery package

Last night I got home to a voicemail from my apartment complex manager saying I had a FedEx package. This puzzled me all evening, as I got home after the office had closed and couldn’t go down to get the package until this morning. I didn’t order anything, and no one told me that they … Read more

YouTube and video posts

I’m so behind the times. I’ve seen so many other people post stuff like this on their blogs, and though I’ve enjoyed it, I haven’t bothered to figure out how to do it myself. Well, that time has ended, because I have a digital camera now! Granted, not much of one, as you’ll see, but … Read more

Well, we did kind of already know that

An old-school quiz, with no blog code! Me: I am 40.23669% – Major Geek Falls right in line with mistborn ‘s recent discussion of just when it was that being a nerd became a good thing.

Midwinter picture link

I don’t like to post my private picture gallery to the public, but I figure if you’re on my friends list, you can take a peek. The link should work. I changed permissions on that album so that if you log in using the username and password “guest” (for both), you should be able to … Read more

Playing catchup

I left work entirely too late to make it to my church activity all the way up in Seattle, so instead I’m staying home, eating homemade Thai (a panang curry, to which I forgot to add the onions! horror! but for a first time, I think I did pretty good), and posting about my week. … Read more
