Thanks for the encouragement, everyone. I taught my class, and I think it went pretty well, though I did run out of time and not get to have my students play the fraction game that I made. (Well, "made" in the sense of "found someone else who'd made it, and printed it out onto colored paper and cut it up into cards.")
Early: So is it still her room when it's empty? Does the room, the thing, have purpose? Or do we -- what's the word? Simon: I really can't help you. Early: The plan is to take your sister. Get the reward, which is substantial. 'Imbue.' That's the word.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Worked half the day, now I'm at home waiting for my shelves. I suspect they'll arrive around 5PM.
In the meantime, PG&E is here with their jackhammers. JOY.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
OMG, I forgot how high-maintenance my friends are. I mean, friends I don't see very often, and this is why. @@

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Well, it's Monday. I got nothing else.

Because books.
Anyone talking about Game of Thrones and/or Penny Dreadful anywhere? Boxed Set, I guess?
I miss fannish squealing and speculation. See also: I miss ita.

Argh. I ordered some shelves for my garage a few weeks ago, and finally on Friday the shipping company got in touch to arrange delivery. They quoted me a delivery window of 1-5pm today.
It's now 5:40, I've been home since 1 pm, and no shelves. I'm really annoyed.
In other news, I've found this awesome blog where this woman shows you how to get yourself (or deceased relatives) off direct-mail lists. [link]
