Huh. One week turned to two weeks…and then that turned to three. And even now, I’m finishing this up (I hope) on Monday and backdating it to Sunday. It’s been that kind of a month.
- The first weekend of the month was a busy one for us, which is why I ended up not getting around to my usual wrap-up.
- 🕺🏻 Saturday, I went out to the Mercury for this month’s Caturday and got to introduce a couple friends from work to the club.

🎭 Sunday we went to see Seattle Shakespeare’s production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream. As with their production of Shrew a few months ago, it was excellent. They really leaned into the comedy, and while I’ve often laughed at the comedy in Shakespeare’s plays, this was the funniest production I’ve seen. Plus, they made some neat tweaks, swapping many of Oberon and Titania’s lines, so that it was Oberon who is bewitched and falls in love with Bottom.

🚀 The next weekend was the final planning meeting before Norwescon. Just the final bits and pieces to put into place! I’m mostly ready, with only a few small tasks to finish preparing for the Thursday night dance, the Philip K. Dick award ceremony, and my accessibility presentation.

🎶 And then this last weekend, we went out to see a friend’s choir concert with Choral Sounds Northwest. Something every weekend! And that’s just going to continue for a bit….

I finished the last two of this year’s Philip K. Dick nominees: Caspar Geon’s The Immeasurable Heaven, and Thomas Ha’s Uncertain Sons and Other Stories. In a week and a half, we’ll know who this year’s winners are!
🎧 Listening
Still practicing (here and there, not quite as much as I’d hoped) for the Norwescon dance, so I got another practice mix posted.

If I’m going to get this posted today, I’m don’t have time to get my usual list of links in. Look for an extra-long link list next week! Assuming I actually do my weekly wrap-up on time, at least….
