Bit of Ivory

I meant to do one yesterday, one in which I waxed philosophical about how one year ago I met for the first time IRL, which has started a chain of events that I could not have foreseen. But last night did not turn out as planned, so the post did not get written, and now […]

A lot. You see, I’ve been taking sleeping pills the last couple of days. Well, they’re not really sleeping pills– they’re actually anti-seizure pills, but in small doses they’re supposed to help you sleep. I think they’ve been helping a bit, except that they do make me a bit more drowsy in the morning. It’s […]

Unfortunately, since I’ve been taking FOREVER for me to write this up, my Wahleecon memories will have to be broken up into smaller chunks than I originally planned. It’s not as funny as Susan’s, but it’s what you get. Overall, Wahleecon was absolute enjoyment punctuated by moments of panic and undercut by constant worry. I […]

Because my dad is currently putting Ginny back together. Those of you at Wahleecon will remember that her lid is VERY noisy when I open and close it. We tried to figure out why tonight. Took the poor notebook to pieces. Unfortunately, it doesn’t seem to be a problem we can fix. The hinges are […]

I am pleased with how it turned out, and incredibly sad it’s all over, and utterly exhausted. I miss everyone already. When I’m not so tired that I can barely stand up straight, I’ll post a full recap. For right now I’ll just say that it was marvelous, and everyone who came is even cooler […]

4:30 am bedtimes do not a happy Wahlee make. But dude, it was worth it. Brief Wahleecon drilldown: The people are *awesome*. Everyone is as cool or cooler than I thought they would be. So exciting to have everyone around me, and so cool that I still get to hang out with them for two […]

Dude. Wahleecon. People are already here. More people are arriving today. It officially starts tomorrow. Gah. I’m excited and anxious and nervous all at the same time. This is going to be the best weekend ever, as long as I don’t screw it up (which is entirely possible). I’ve been supremely unproductive today, and it’s […]

Done. I’m done. This huge, gigantic project that has been giving me nightmares because I was sure that I’d be going two weeks beyond the deadline and not be able to take time off for Wahleecon because June 4 was the day it was due is DONE. More than a week ahead of the deadline. […]
