This weekend, I went out to an SCA event, the Malagentian Test Kitchen up in Maine. The picture above is one of my best friends Sine and I in the glorious sunshine. Sine and her husband Kythe actually introduced Argus and I, so we’ve been friends for a long time. This was a fun, low-key …

Updates and other things

I know, it’s been a while. I’m actually coming out of a pretty dark time, but I’m working with a therapist and on medication and have been diagnosed with ADHD (I know, finally, right??), so the future is looking – well, it’s brighter than it’s been in a while, even if it’s still pretty dim. …
No independence today
Posted on July 4, 2022
I’m feeling evil right now, because as a uterus owner in America, this is NOT my Independence Day (fuck you, Supreme Court, and the right wing). So instead of “celebrating,” I’m writing ghost stories and enjoying iced tea at a lovely coffee/tea shop in my hometown (shoutout to Brothers’ Cortado!). I went up to Pittsburgh, …
A return to (hopefully) normalacy (personal/spiritual/writing)
Posted on August 26, 2018
It’s been an interesting couple of weeks, and it’s kind of thrown me for a loop, which is why I haven’t been posting. Another death (and goddess, how I hate typing those words) disrupted everything. I re-set myself a bit by doing some coifs to help out a friend and sent them off, and by …
Weekly news round-up, the slightly late edition
Posted on July 22, 2018
So yeah, it’s been a few weeks. First I had an eye infection, complete with an ulcerated cornea, which meant absolutely no screen time. Then I went away to GNEW and was busy taking down my pavilion and driving home, so there was no posting. I meant to do it Monday, but I woke up …
Weekly news roundup – The Remicade week in review
Posted on June 24, 2018
This week was a bit of this and that, but this seems to be a good headline for this post for the nonce. My week got thrown for a bit of a loop because I needed to do some hard things this week, but I did them, and I’m very proud of myself for …
Weekly news roundup – the Father’s Day edition
Posted on June 18, 2018
Okay, so it’s a day late, but hey, I spent Father’s Day with the best of dads, mine. We went and saw Solo, which was super fun and I highly recommend (as one of my friends said, Oscar-worthy it wasn’t, but it was a good Star Wars movie). So I didn’t get to post this …
Weekly news roundup
Posted on June 10, 2018
You know, I think one of the things I miss most about Diane Rehm retiring is that now my Fridays do not consist of two hours of the Weekly News Roundup. She used to do an hour of domestic news, and then an hour of international news, and it rounded out my week nicely. NPR, …
Life reboot: 2.0.
Posted on June 3, 2018
Life has been weird lately, and I’m not sure why. Of course, I just got home from Balticon, and I’m sick (again – I swear Maryland is trying to kill me), so that might be part of it. I’m still glad I went -I spent a lot of time going to panels on the business …
