This is where I wish I was. Sadly, instead, the pollen is falling like snow outside. I’m assuming that’s why I feel awful. I really, really hope it isn’t con crud. Really. Balticon was amazing. It was the first time I’d been a fan, rather than a guest, and …

Balticon!!!!
Yeah, it’s that time of year again – Balticon! I’m here, I’m not a guest, which means I have a ton of time to immerse myself in the joy that comes from being with your chosen family. I’m going to take a ton of pictures, hang out with everyone I can, and spend every waking …
(personal) Grey
I’m getting tired of grey mornings. Even grey mornings that smell of green and growing things, that are warmer than they were, and full of soft rain. I used to enjoy grey days, but that was before we had the winter from Game of Thrones that seemed to last forever. When I wake up to grey …
(health/personal) First goal met!

On March 1, I said I wanted to lose 6 lbs by the end of the month. In the first week, I went to my Remicade treatment, and the scale read 310 lbs. So I needed 10 lbs to get under 300, which was my first weight loss goal of the season. …

I really, really miss being a child at this point, because I could spend an entire afternoon sitting on the floor, reading. Or watching the clouds. Or sewing. And there was NOTHING else that …
(personal/writing) Thinking about time management
In a way, I’m lucky. My day job doesn’t come home with me. I go in, I deal with people, and I go home. It’s not something that I can bring home, nor is it something that I have to really schedule (lucky me, my day is scheduled for me). So articles about how to …
(writing/personal) The first blog post of the new year
Happy New Year, everyone! Sorry I disappeared after the end of Advent – the holidays overwhelmed me, and I just couldn’t bring myself to write, never mind blog. But I hope everyone enjoyed this year’s Advent, and I promise, it’s not the last. For those who may not know (I know I have …
