A ghost? What's the deal? Is every frat on this campus haunted? And if so, why do people keep coming to these parties, cause it's not the snacks.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Just got back from seeing our friend Brian in his one man show. he always brings his shows out here from NYC once a year for a couple of nights. It was in a tiny, 99-seat theater with hand-built risers. The show was great, and in the audience were some friends B recently worked with--Christopher McDonald, Courtney B. Vance and Tom Hanks. I was too shy to actually go meet Tom Hanks. B and his wife are staying with us, so we'll get to hear about the after-show shenanigans later.

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

Was Angela Bassett there? Whoo! She's my lady.

No wives, just the three guys. Vance was whistling and cheering throughout the show in a very adorable way.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Sweet.

Oh sure, TODAY it's nice and sunny, when I don't really have time to go to the beach and just washed my hair. I guess I can go down to the river for a bit instead.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Heading to Pittsburgh for a housefilk today. (Normally this weekend would be Confluence, a convention in Pittsburgh. It was cancelled this year because the hotel they signed a contract with told them in April it was shutting down a week before the con dates, and they couldn't get another hotel.) Stopping at Falling Waters on the way back tomorrow because architecture.

Sandwich is super generous with the portobellos today. NOM.

Gonna go pedicure when I finish this half.

I want a pedicure! Maybe I could squeeze one in.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Did I mention my brother, SiL and niece are visiting next Monday? He didn't tell me until yesterday, which I suppose is grounds for complaint, but it will be extra-nice to have them to show around/spend time with.

(They're staying in a Cambridge B&B, so it's not a surprise houseguest visit at least!)

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I want a pedicure too, Kat. I keep forgetting to take the time to give myself one. Oh, and Kat, I have clothes for the kids. We just went through their drawers as both kids are growing like weeds these days, esp Isaac.

Which reminds me, I need to do back-to-school shopping next week. School is starting so early, I can't believe summer is almost over.
