Thing the first:
Thanks to theamusedone giving me a heads up, I now have my very own DVD set of the Two Fat Ladies, one of my favorite PBS series back in the day. I loved their mix of cooking/history/comedy.
Thing the second:
Nifty interview with Felicia Day on Lifehacker.
Thing the third:
I got my first item from the livelongnmarry auction – a lovely hand-knit scarf in Slytherin colors from ehmaz. Now, if it would only get to be winter so I could wear it!
Thing the fourth:
For those of you in the general DC area and in the Web trade, our company is having an open house Friday afternoon. LMK if you have questions.
Thing the fifth:
A summer cold is a vicious beasty and can only be subdued by loads and loads of sleep, cold meds and more sleep. Am mostly over it now.
Thing the sixth:
The darling and always amusing brooklinegirl sent me a random envelope with Canadian goodies. I LOLd when I opened it. So much fun!
Thing the seventh:
The Supernatural essay book is up on Amazon and can probably be pre-ordered from your favorite indie store. Yours truly will have an essay in there entitled: Another Roadside Attraction: the role of the Trickster in Supernatural I really like the cover. METALLICAR!
Thing the eighth:
Trader Joe’s ROCKS. They now (locally) have these lovely frozen meals for people like me – things like Tilapia with asparagus tips; Chicken Pomodoro, etc. Nuke and eat. AWESOME.
Thing the ninth:
I have bowed to necessity and registered for World Fantasy 2008 in Calgary. The always adorable Jeanne Stein has graciously offered a bed in her room. Now I just have to figure out how I’m going to do the plane thing. I realized that I really needed to go – since this year’s theme is Mystery in Fantasy and Horror. How could I not? Plus, GOHs is Barbara Hambly, whom I adore muchly and have paneled with at Malice Domestic. Any of you all going?
Thing the final:
I am very behind on a lot of things. However, SGA amused me greatly; Burn Notice continues to amuse me. Looking forward to a new episode of The Middleman.
That’s all, folks!
