Going Home
I want to be better.
Blogging Will Save the World!
Blogging will not save the world. I’m going to say that again: screaming on the internet will not save the world. But it can be a good place to start. Blogs are great places, but I see them more as testing grounds – as initial steps, as consciousness-raising – more than I see them as

Traveling Sugar
I know my numbers are going to be “off” when I travel, but for some reason this particular con had me running particularly high numbers (I was 313 at lunch today. 313! I haven’t seen a number that high since my pizza splurge at Christmas!). I blame some of that on the dessert thing last
Connage
I love me a good Wiscon, don’t get me wrong, but I’ve never stayed Thursday-Tuesday before, and yes, it’s Sunday night and I’m incredibly burned out. It takes a lot of effort to get ready for those things. After I blew through the first couple days of “I love all these people! It’s so great

Idol
Does the whole Simon Cowell poking at Paula Abdul (physically) thing bother anybody else but me? I realized last night that if I have to see Simon Cowell poking at Paula Abdul one more time, I’m going to fly to Hollywood and throttle him. When she stands up and starts hitting him and telling him
In Which the Protagonist Has a Lot of Packing to Do
Oh my. Also, I should be reading Wiscon-appropriate material, yet here I am, frantically devouring Gone With the Wind… what’s the change, you may ask, as I’ve been trying to hammer through this book for months? Well, I finally got to the Seige of Atlanta. It is great.

Cravings
I had a wicked craving for a quesadilla or pancakes at 10pm tonight. Man, that sounded uber-tasty. But you know, I’m working on staying in my clothes cause you know, clothes are expensive, and sweet fuck I just had to buy two pairs of size 18 – 18!!! – trousers for job interviews. So I
Parthenogenesis Among.. Sharks
“Only a species under threat would reproduce this way.” Well, then. That does give me some ideas for a few SF novels…
