I had things to post about when I opened this window, I swear. Now I’ve forgotten them all. Well, anyway. Let’s see. There was an early showing of the second How To Train Your Dragon movie yesterday, and the first half of it was good. Ted says the second half was good too, but Young Indiana didn’t make it all the way through, so neither did I. :) I did see (all of) Belle this weekend, and it was *wonderful*. Highly, highly recommended. Working my way through Veronica Mars. I’m…

dear chance fans…
…if you had a choice between a whole Chance-world origin story or an introduction to a new modern character in the Chance world, which would you prefer?

I also presume it’s generally more fun to read if you’re a Star Trek fan, but since I am one, I can’t tell if it lacks if you’re not. Aside from the presumption of more fun/sense if you’re a Star Trek fan, it has too many characters with similar names, which makes it hard to keep track if…
patreon problem
The payment problem on Patreon was my fault. Twice I set the stupid thing to “patrons only” and totally missed the other place where I was supposed to set it to “paid creation”. I’m in a really bad mood right now.
