Hi! If you're curious, please feel free to check out my user profile. This LJ is about 1/4 open, mostly with memes and writing competition entries. The actual personal stuff is f-locked. Please comment where/how you came across me and if you'd like to be added. I enjoy meeting new people! :-)

Yesterday was just too busy and I never got to post :-P Now it's time to close up the laptop for our drive to Harrisburg. Tomorrow we'll travel en masse to Balticon. Looking forward to seeing peeps. Becca is poised with xanax and a club if I have trouble getting out the door ;-) Probably will get back online tonight and again Saturday night at the hotel. See you then!

Holy cow, this is a riot :-D

Shortie post just to ask, outside of the Smiths, cypherindigo, itsallmishegoss, who is going to Balticon? gonzai55, you are, right? I probably will NOT be in attendance Friday, but will be there all day Saturday/evening and again on Sunday for at least the morning/early afternoon.

From Friday night's master class & graduation. If you don't know what I look like, I am all the way on the left with dark hair and glasses. Mike is right behind me. Our sensei is on the right in the white jacket and black belt.

I vow to post in a little bit. *nods definitively* Must eat first.

FUUUUUUUUUUUUCK it's early release today! *facepalm*

Hubba hubba on Supernatural officially getting renewed for an 8th season!!!!!

The Day After Tomorrow - arguably one of my favorite disaster movies around! I can watch this movie every. single. time. it's on.

So it's just started, and I haven't seen it in a while, and I'm immediately struck by HOW YOUNG Jake Gyllenhaal looks. He's a BABY!!! Not like he's a codger now, but - damn!!

Just a time-passing observation...
