In case one of my authors turns up mysteriously dead from a fist punched THROUGH the internet, you guys were with me the whole time, right?
I was so surprised to see you here in Utah, but we had a lovely lunch anyway.
Whoa! I... I think I'm having a thought. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's a thought. Now I'm having a plan. Now I'm having a wiggins.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
On the positive side of life, we hadn't received any Halloween party invitations yet (there's at least one friend-of-a-friend with a GIANT house who has a huge shindig every year to which friends-of-friends get invited), BUT we got the invitation today. Woo!
So that means I can pull the trigger on buying a long red wig and foofy blouse to be Hot Topic Katrina (I actually have everything else I need for the costume in my closet, to my slight chagrin) and Tim can start growing his facial hair to be Skinny Jeans Ichabod Crane (he has EVERYTHING he needs for that costume, because it's regular 21st-century clothes [yes, he owns skinny jeans] and his long flowing locks pulled back in a ponytail). Yippee!
t edit I think I even have an emerald pendant -- not as big as Katrina's, but I'm not really shooting for screen-accurate cosplay here, just a Halloween costume mostly for my own amusement.

I'm at the dentist getting my permanent down. Jury's still out on the root canal, but I stupidly forgot to bring my crocheting and my iPad with me. Waiting room fail.

That's such a genius couple's costume, Tep!

Mmm, chopped liver.
Permanent crown achieved, I go back for a general exam in a couple of weeks we'll reassess how the broken tooth is doing then. Came back to the office and saw my co-worker and her son in the parking lot - he's a little banged up but no broken bones and no internal bleeding, he told me himself he feels fine and was carrying crutches rather than using them. Whew!

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Urgh. Took 25 minutes to get off NIH campus, because everybody was trying to leave from the same exit.(Normally it would take 5-10 minutes) A water main broke on the major road on the other side of NIH, so no-one could go that way. Once I got off campus it was normal traffic.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
That all sounds good, -t!
