Two more emails regarding my academic future and then I can nap (took a day off for errands and future academic errands and such). But the procrastination is strong.
Wesley: Illyria can be...difficult. Testing her might be hard without getting someone seriously hurt. Angel: We'll make Spike do it. Wesley: Good.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Massive update to the beta site. I mean, if you go there it looks exactly the same as before, but it is a massive update. You can trust me, I'm a software developer.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Did our usual grocery run. Now I have a cat on my lap.

Our wings are not tired.
When I was over visiting the sibs my ex-SIL gave me a wooden box, which was my mother's. It didn't weigh anything and I thought it was empty and didn't open it until today. Inside rolled up were all of their school diplomas, many receipts for tiny payments to a furniture company, military papers from my dad's WW2 service, AND wedding memorabilia. The topper from the cake wrapped in a military napkin, hotel bill, flower bill, license announcement, and more. They were married June 10, 1944, 4 days after D-Day. I got all the feels here today.
There was also a long lock of hair tied in a ribbon that I have no clue who it might be. It would be her hair color, but likely others in the family too.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
That's amazing, Laura. So many treasures.

I've got my electronic boarding pass, confirmation of the shuttle, and confirmation of hotel and tour of Hoover Dam. I'm going to Las Vegas tomorrow!

'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"
I'm more excited about Hoover Dam, frankly. But then I've never been in Vegas except for a short layover in the airport, which has its own gambling area full of slot machines AND you can see the Strip from the windows.
Seriously, slots in the airport?
