Timelies all!
Am at Chessiecon.
Yeah, I could do that, but I'm paralyzed with not caring very much.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I'm home from a week with family in VA. No racist comments were made and the dinner was incredible and it was great to sit at a table and eat dinner with both my brothers--that hasn't happened in a couple of years.
As for the week leading up to the holiday, my mom's BFF has some worsening memory deficits and is almost deaf, and my mom has a very quiet voice and it was like a very annoying comedy skit all week.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Suzi, what are the chances of your org changing how they refer to the horse breed to Romany, or Rom horse? G*psy is a racial slur, and is being replaced with Rom, Rrom, Romani or Romany, in reference to vardo wagons, clothing, and other cultural effects, even woo-woo things like fortune tellers.
The keepers of the breed registry should be looking at changing the name officially, just to keep up with social relevance--not that your org has anything to do with that.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Why oh why do I always overfill the cupcake cups?? I have made a ton of cupcakes in my life! And most of them have been overfull. Oh well.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Think I prefer overfilled cupcakes. Been a while since I made cupcakes at all, though, probably I should check that.

Made it to Denver with enough time t get something to eat. Of course, they fucked up the order but at this point in shenanigans I'm counting myself lucky I got food. Albeit with a raised middle finger.

And being one of the last 3 on the plane...I have a row to myself. In the wayback, but still. Also far away from white jackass boomer guy I wanted to hit.
Vacation wearing off fast, I guess. Or could be the cold I'm fighting. I'm pretty much guaranteed to get sick this trip.
Eta: except now waiting fo freaking pilots. Jesus.

Yay row of your own!
I went shopping with a friend at an art fair (which started last week, so maybe we missed some good pieces, but it was not crowded!) and bought a few things--two presents, plus one gift for me. :) My friend ended up buying a whole bunch of both gifts and things for herself, so I was glad I suggested it. Sad, though, because one of the things I LOVED was a shirt that was only available in a size that didn't fit me...and it was one of the few artists who didn't have a card with an etsy store or something (and I googled her name, and she has an etsy store that she hasn't sold anything in since 2010).

And then we had to be deiced. Which is a first for me. Plane smells of antifreeze now. But am apparent still only about 25 minutes later than original scheduled arrival.
Kat, the radiolab podcasts you recommended helped pass the time. I'd definitely heard the last part (modern day football mom) of the football one.
