I’m still up and, thinking about how often and easily I stay up this late, I’ve decided to take the 3:15 a.m. train to Readercon on Friday. I miss Rob (just in case you couldn’t tell from the schmaltzy posts this week) and would rather be tired during the con than miss seeing him by […]
Had octopus at dinner that looked like Cthulu. Elder god is tasty when flame-broiled. #

Today was one of those odd days where I was occupied all day but got nothing done. I hate those days. Oh wait. I did laundry ((With my freeze ray, I will STOP the world)) and a little bit of story editing. Then this evening I went to KGB. The readings tonight by John Kessel

I’ve been writing love letters to Rob every night and tucking them in places that I know he’ll look when he gets home. There’s one in the refrigerator. One under his journal — but not inside, as that would have required opening it. One on his computer. I’ll leave one on his pillow. ((He doesn’t

Chattanooga Times Free Press reports that Chattanooga lands VW plant. It’ll be at Enterprise South which is about a mile from my parents’ house. This is a very good thing and also a very odd thing. It’ll mean that area is going to see a lot of commercial development so we might actually have good

I talked to Rob very briefly tonight. The area he’s in gets spotty cellphone coverage, at best, so I’ve had one text message from him, but otherwise it’s been radio silence. He found a place tonight where, if he didn’t turn his head, I could hear him. le sigh. I miss him. Which is absurd,
Today was largely uneventful. I picked up a check so I could start building the springer spaniel I need to make for a show. I’ll tell you, standing around on the sidewalk with the artistic director and having a conversation about how much blood you want the dog to have on it and how it

Help me spread the word. To raise money for the KGB Fantastic Fiction reading series, we’re holding a raffle. The prizes are unbelievable. Original art from Thomas Canty, Neil Gaiman’s keyboard (autographed), short story critiques by Ellen Datlow, Gardner Dozois… The list goes on and on. Seriously, one of the items is your own wormhole.

Seriously, I’m tired of getting gored by the moosehead everytime I go into our bedroom. # Flashed at Liberty Hall for the first time in a year. It felt good. I’d worried that I couldn’t still crank out a story in 90 minutes. #

I just turned in a bid on making a wounded dog including “optional brain spatter.” I love my job. # I’m heading out of town until Monday. No computer access. Cellphone coverage spotty but I’ll let you know if anything interesting happens. # Trying to fit everything on the motorcycle is, shall we say, challenging.
