Ted was morally superior this morning and got up and went to the gym. I, on the other hand, slept until the cats came and lay on me, and then slept some more. I’ll go do my pilates in a minute, but I feel kind of guilty. Especially since it’s not actually raining this morning, and I fear I’ve lost my only chance for getting outside when it’s not miserable. …I wish people would put their twitters behind cut tags. I do not care about twitter. If I wanted to…

Neil Gaiman signing/reading/thing
Ok, so it looks like I *am* going to go into Dublin tomorrow afternoon for the Neil Gaiman thing at Eason’s. I’ll probably get into town around 3pm, as I want to go to Chapters and sign books and chat, and to swing by Sub City, so…anybody up for an early (and cheap) dinner? I’m looking forward to seeing some people, one way or another. And then I’m going to spend the entirety of November (excepting Dublin Comic Con) with my head down and my nose to the grindstone, because…

On the other hand, I know what I’ll be doing with my evening. :) Yesterday’s…
to the irish peoples I know:

Maybe there could be a dinner before or afterward or something? She said hopefully? :) (Oh, also, totally unrelated, but no matter how many times I see this photo of the earth at night, I think it’s one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever seen.)
just stuff
Y’know a couple weeks ago when I slept funny and woke up with my arm flung behind me? The joint’s been all achy and mucked up since then, but this morning it suddenly went CLICK and is fine again. It never ceases to amaze me both how much discomfort the body can become accustomed to and work with, and how very good it feels when the pain stops. I have had “write Chance #6” on my thinks to do list for like half a year now. Possibly longer. I finally…
