Illyria: We cling to what is gone. Is there anything in this life but grief? Wesley: There's love. There's hope...for some. There's hope that you'll find something worthy...that your life will lead you to some joy...that after everything...you can still be surprised. Illyria: Is that enough? Is that enough to live on?

Yay for new glasses!!

(That reminds me, I have to go shopping for flip-up clipon sunglasses for my frames, since I can't afford to replace my lenses with my newest prescription before going to Florida in April.)

I forgot that BEA was in LA this year! I'm totally going (on my educator credentials). SO EXCITING. I cleaned up on free books 3 or so years ago.

Kristin, thank you so much for the offer. Noah is sick and is a snot/coughing machine. I'm scared to expo others to him!

Oh, hmph. I had high hopes!

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Nope, Los Angeles.

I think it was in NY last year or the year before. Sorry, Jesse.

Isn't it so much fun?!? When I moved two years ago, I finally got rid of all the books I'd been meaning to read that I accumulated at three BEA conferences but had never gotten around to. (I still have a few that I couldn't part with, however.)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

This morning I cooked a pot of brown rice so I could take some to work with me for lunch. I feel weird.

I heard back from the government, and all is well. Phew!
