    • Norwescon 32 Wrapup It took roughly a week to get here, but really, I don't figure that's too bad, given my usual photowhoreish ways. Just a few minutes ago, the last of my shots from Norwescon made it up to Flickr. ➡
    • CSI Gets Geeky I don't often talk much about my TV watching, but one of the shows that Prairie's managed to get me into is CSI, and last night's episode, 'A Space Oddity,' was _so_ worth it. Bottom line: great episode, and worth watching if you're a fan of CSI, Trek, BSG, or any combination of the above. ➡

    • Norwescon 29 Photo Extravaganza Well, not only did I survive my first Norwescon, but I did it camera in hand. And, since I'm a complete and total photo whore, there's a few pictures to be seen. ➡

    • Neri di Bicci, ‘Virgin and Child With Six Saints’ As it turns out, we'd stumbled into the celebrations surrounding the return of a 15th century altar painting by Renaissance artist Neri di Bicci to St. James Cathedral after restoration work. This peaked our interest, so we followed along up to the cathedral to watch the pageant and blessing service. ➡

    • Emptying out the apartment Consider this advance notice for anyone in the Seattle area that reads this site: within the next week, I'm probably going to be putting up a lot of goodies for sale. I just need to do a little bit of research to figure out good asking prices before I put up a firm list. ➡

    • Long day Quick bits, because I'm too worn out to bother with anything more in-depth. ➡

    • Supreme court does good The radio at work was trained to The Buzz, a local talk-radio station, and I heard a good talk show tonight that carried with it some extremely good news -- apparently the Supreme Court today upheld a ruling declaring the 1996 Child Pornography Protection Act unconstitutional. ➡
    • That’s icky Rather than car, credit, or casino ads, I'm currently getting a banner that starts with a picture of the American flag. The next frame says, 'Own a piece of history...', and the third frame offers, 'Own a plaque made with the metal from the World Trade Center'. It then closes with, 'WE WILL NEVER FORGET'. ➡

    • Reunions…ugh In just about two weeks, I hit my 28th birthday, and just a couple months after that, the Bartlett High School Class of '91 has its 10-year anniversary here in town. I'm really not sure what I think of this. ➡
    • I can think of a few ‘small and cute’ things… If they're small and they're cute, you don't really notice that they're dead. ➡
