So I was just checking out the photos on today’s , and the first photo that came up said, “The view from my university window around 3pm.” I said to Ted, “Why, look!” and he looked over and said, “Fairbanks?”, because by God, it looks exactly like UAF, and I’d been about to say, “Fairbanks!” to finish my, “Why, look!” Only then I noticed the subject line, and the photo was taken in Moscow. That is *so weird*. I defy any of my UAF friends to deny that it is…

mad dash for the finish line
has a draft she wants to finish by month’s end. I want to finish the HANDS OF CHANGE draft before PCon. We’re going to make a mad dash for the finish line over the next few weeks, though I think is about 800 times more likely to actually *reach* the finish line than I am. I’d have to actually do a chapter a day for 20 straight days (not quite straight: I intend to take weekends off) to pull off finishing it before PCon. It’s not impossible. It’s not *likely*,…
charmed :)
Ted and I just came back from watching “Music & Lyrics”, the new Hugh Grant/Drew Barrymore movie.

Hugh Grant as one of the two front members of…

We went forth today and bought a car, more or less. It had no spare tire, the passenger side window didn’t roll down, and although it was advertised as having a radio, it didn’t. We told them to fix those things and fill the tank and we’d buy it. The guy hedged about filling the tank (€20 worth, he said, but I’ll insist he agreed to fill it), but otherwise they were willing to do those things, and so sometime early next week we’ll have a car. Then maybe we’ll…
quick note before bed
No doubt it’d be better to wait to post this until tomorrow, so I’d have something else to say besides BOOTS!, but if I’ve nothing to say tomorrow you’ll all just have to languish in the silence of the Kit. Ted and I signed up for a four-week photography class, the first meeting of which was held tonight. I was, I admit, pretty skeptical when I saw the syllabus, which said week one would involve learning about camera accessories and photoshop. Well, it in fact turned out to be quite…
