Day 285: Y’all can have your superb owl. We woke up, had breakfast, went back to sleep for a while, and then after some minor home chores, made ourselves some treats by dipping things in chocolate (Ritz crackers and pretzels, to be specific). Now we’re going to find something non-superb owl-ish to doze in front of for a while.
Day 284: Back at the DoubleTree for today’s Norwescon planning meeting. In addition to much better weather than last month, we had heat in the meeting room as well! Much more comfortable all around. And since we usually meet on the top floor of the hotel’s tower, the elevators have a really nice view of the hotel property.
Day 283: Just an uneventful work day, so I’ll show off a piece of art I got from Shari a number of years ago.
Day 282: After much of the day had a lot of noise from an event going on in the conference room on this floor, the quiet of the afternoon after they left was almost eerie.
Day 281: Just a little light reading before going to sleep. Read both of the two Star Trek children’s books (exclusively produced for libraries in 1977) in my Christmas haul tonight; they were just as good as you’d expect. As long as your expectations weren’t very high, at least. One of them at least had decent artwork; I’m not sure the illustrator of the other had ever actually seen Star Trek.
Day 280: I got to work and the elevator was locked out, so I couldn’t get to my floor until someone from Facilities happened by and could key me up. Then I got to my office and realized that I’d forgotten to bring my computer in with me this morning, so I had to turn right around and drive home and back before I could start my work day. After all that, I think my mug might be mocking me.
Day 279: While seeing my wife off to work this morning, she needed a place to put her scarf as she was putting her coat on, and I was apparently conveniently placed.
Day 278: After a night out at the club, a slow day is in order. Slept in, had breakfast, took a nap, ran a couple errands and took care of laundry, watched a movie, and then dinner and dumb TV while doing Norwescon work before heading to bed. Not bad at all.
Day 277: Back out at the Merc for Caturday! Love this goofball mix of goth, retro, and just plain silly. Just danced to a mashup of Aqua’s “Barbie Girl” and CeCe Peniston’s “Finally” that I am definitely going to have to track down. And then Utah Saints’ “Something Good”, which I haven’t heard on a dance floor in ages. Such a good night!
Day 276: It’s the end of the week! And…that’s all I’m coming up with for tonight.
