Off To LibertyCon Already there, actually. ;) Opening ceremonies at 6:00, a concert tonight at 11:00, a kids' concert at 1:00 tomorrow, and another set 1:00 Sunday. And I'll be selling out of my room (213). Sadly, two guests will not be here; Chris Christopher cancelled just this afternoon, and Artist GOH Darrell K. Sweet could not make it, as his wife had a heart attack earlier this week. She should recover; we wish them both well. Fortunately, the con got ahold of Beth Willinger to fill in, and her husband B.J. is coming along. I haven't seen them in years. Who else is gonna be there? Or, if not, what are you doing this weekend? |

Yule Ball
Crossposted in DragonconYALit This year, my three friends and I will be attending the Dragon*con Yule Ball. We are three girls, Myself as Luna Lovegood, as well as Moaning Myrtle, A Slytherin, and a Hufflepuff. We would like to endeavor about finding gentlemen whom would like to escort us to the Yule Ball. All ask is that you be 21+ as all of us are in our mid to late 20's. I would like a canon character as well as Myrtle, however, that is not required. I just thought it would be fun to do. We will probably attend in our school uniforms as I won't have time to concoct Luna's ball gown in time. I do hope someone responds and the Nargles don't cause mischief with the posts. You can reach me at lovegoodlogic@aol.com if you are interested. Thank you. |

Well, has not been a bad day. I harbored fears it was going to be tough because I was in a very long lasting meeting with my replacement and I was scared it would be somber and sad and really get me down. Instead, as I was going over everything this little beam of sunshine was welling up with all sorts of excited that I am DONE with this shit. I mean, I am nervous and scared because this whole process and experience is stressful both in the present and what the future could be. But I am ready now. Let me go. Take it, cut me loose, I am over it, resigned and at peace. It is/was time. I learned also that when you take a sudafed on an empty stomach and then decide to try and work out you may come close to passing out and vomitting. Suffice to say I didn't really work out today owing to that fact. Current Music: New Young Pony Club- Tight Fit |

Pharmacists Can't Refuse To Hand Out Plan B Frickin' well about time. Here's the money quote: The right to freely exercise one's religion "does not relieve an individual of the obligation to comply with a valid and neutral law of general applicability," the 9th Circuit panel wrote.
"Any refusal to dispense -- regardless of whether it is motivated by religion, morals, conscience, ethics, discriminatory prejudices, or personal distaste for a patient -- violates the rules," the panel said. Thanks to filkerdave for the heads-up. |

Any vapers out there?
Hey guys. I've been a smoker for years now and have recently converted to eCigs. One of the hardest things about being a smoker at D*C last year was scheduling time to run outside for a quick drag between panels. But with my new "personal vaporizer" I feel it will be MUCH easier on me. I was wondering if there were any vapers here attending the con. Or even better, has anyone had experience vaping at a con or the hotels? Anyway, if there are, maybe we can arrange a meet up or something. Thanks for listening. |

Signings
Arghh! I've got so many books I want to get autographed! Ringo, Stirling, Nye, Zahn, Stackpole, David, Resnick, and Foster! (fetal position) Can't decide, can't decide. Do I take ALL my books by those authors and hope I can get most signed, or do I choose which ones I want signed? Current Mood: confused |

what a day!
I could go on and on about how wonderful today is. How I just felt great when I woke up this morning. How I like the job I have. How I'm happy with my house and how I'm slowly getting it to where I want it to be. How I have the most wonderful cat in the entire world who treats me like the greatest satff she has ever had. But I wont'. Because all that pales in comparison to another thing that occurred today. A person was born that has given time and time again of himself to help others. Who has perservered through tragedy and shown us some of the best of what we are all capable of. He has been a true friend and a companion to his loving wife for over 15 years. And those are just some of his good traits:) Happy birthday reprobayt. Today is your day. p.s. Oh yeah, Nikola Tesla was born today as well. It that isn't an omen I don't know what is. |

Traffic fun
I pull out of a parking lot this morning (Wegmans - I wanted a goddamn bagel,) wait at a red light, and, when no cars are coming for a bit, make a right turn onto a 4-lane road. Seconds later, a gigantic SUV - which was far away at the time I made the turn, mind you - comes screaming up behind me, almost hitting my bumper, and the lady inside starts freaking out - throwing her arms around and screaming god-knows-what, with the apparent implication that I should be going 65mph despite the fact that it's a 35mph zone and I'm approaching a red light. I decide to mock her, so I start throwing my arms around like Dr. Octopus on crack while my brain starts trying to work out whether I have room in my tiny car to get myself into a decent position to moon her. But before I can work out the logistics, she flips me off - AND TAKES THE NEXT TURN, ABOUT 1/8 OF A MILE UP THE ROAD FROM WHERE I GOT I N FRONT OF HER. I inconvenienced this speed demon for a total of maybe 15 seconds, and for this she flipped out like I had just set her baby on fire. It's this last realization that was the clincher as far as my mood. I started playing various scenarios in my brain, ranging from "instead of throwing my arms around wildly, I should have called upon my moderate ASL knowledge and signed 'EAT A BAG OF BATTERED SKUNK VAGINAS, BITCH!'" to "I should have turned around, followed her down her side road, gotten out of my car when she got out of hers, summoned some tears, and guilted the fuck out of her with a story about my wife having just died four days ago and how I'm now the single parent of legless siamese twin crack babies trying to get by at my job cleaning the video booths at a 24-hour gay porn shop with a toothbrush, and they only pay me in store credit so my family subsists on a diet of edible thongs and gummi penises." I finally settled into just hoping she has a heart attack and dies today (sure, she might just be having a bad day, but I'm not a particularly forgiving person - particularly when it comes to people I do not know personally who have irritated me without me having done anything to deserve it.) But as this outcome is unlikely despite her obvious stress level, I will instead have to be contented with posting this here in the hopes that a handful of my friends and fans of Worm Quartet will read it, and thus multiple people across the world who have never met and will never meet this woman will think "God, what a cunt." -=ShoEboX=- |

On being a boy...Fun with being gender queer I had an interesting revelation last night and because I am the "master of the obvious" this may be a big giant "duh" to some of you. I had a chat with my parent's last evening. They know my gender stuff and generally, a lot of what I am in to in terms of leather and poly relationships and in their wonderful, unconditional loving way, are just pleased as punch as long as I am happy. Anyway...they got me this birthday card that was PLASTERED with What a woman, you go girl..etc type stuff that made me wince. I have told them I am not going to ask them to call me chosen name because that would be difficult for them (although my Dad is starting to and all my siblings have for while now, god love 'em all) but I was honest in that I appreciated the sentiment of the card but the descriptions don't quite fit and made me feel a touch uncomfortable so if they could go neutral in the future that would rock. And in typical fashion, they were totally cool. Then my Dad said something about getting cards that say "What a man..", etc. And I realized...while I identify as a 'he', male, etc, I am sooooo not a man. I am a boy! I will never be a man, don't want to be a man, don't identify as a man, just a boy. I have been called a boy for so long in the kink context that it just is but is, even outside of kink, what I will be. I don't want to adjust my body at all, I am just a bear boy! I can't see myself as a man at all!!! I just never considered that people who know I am male identified would see me as a man so I was pondering that last night. You would think this would have occured to me earlier but...I guess when you don't have cause to really think about something you don't need to. Anyway...just sayin'. Boy!!! |

I slept like a fucking champ last night...once I fell asleep. The falling asleep is ALWAYS the problem. Always. But damn, it has been hard to get up each and every morning since I have slept so deeply. This kind of worries me because of potential implications but until I see more proof I am enjoying it. And I got dreams too. REALLY. GOOD. DREAMS. And it's Friday. Going to be locked in a room for many hours this morning teaching someone everything I know so I don't have to do shit come next week. Weird! |

Let's just say I am glad I have good legal representation
One of the benefits of being me is that I have free legal representation. It seems I may need it in the near future. *sigh* Fortunately said legal reputation is among the best in the country and I will, in the end, win. Why are people dicks? |

I just hate her...
I have to say that--the obvious folks like Kim Jong Il or other truly evil people aside--that perhaps my least favorite person on the planet right now is Mary Murphy. (She is a judge on the show "So You Think You Can Dance") She is shrill, shrieky, and she is entirely convinced that she is adorable and endearing. My god she needs to be silenced. I'm so glad my TiVo lets me fast forward, and my TV lets me mute. It's the only way the show is even watchable. GOD I hate her. |

Does anyone have tickets for sale?
I really want to go to D*C as I haven't been in a couple years but money is tight and I have a cheap hotel situation if I can just find a ticket. Did anyone buy one way back when that needs to sell for 50 bucks or less??? Thx. Current Mood: hopeful |

The week of suck
I've spent the last three days in bed. I'm about ready to call it and go to the ER for a shot to kill the pain, or at the very least, dull it a little. There are so many things I want to be doing but can't because of the incapacitating pain. Strangely, I have been sleeping... In other news, Mom is out of the hospital and back on her regular chemo treatments. She's not well at all right now and that's keeping me more stressed than usual. I just wish there was something I could do to make things easier for her. I got a windfall today in the amount of $250. I'm designating that my Dragon Con spending money. I don't know if it's fact or fiction but I read that Malcolm McDowell, Tobe Hooper and George Romero will be attending this year. None are listed on the official guest list however. I missed Romero the last time he was there so that would make the whole convention for me to meet him. Tobe Hooper too--other than specialized horror conventions I've never known him to attend D*C. It's getting to the point where I don't think I can do everything I want to do in one day. On Monday I'm kicking off a new diet and will try to exercise too. If I can be rid of this migraine long enough to function like a normal human being that is... I need motivation but I'm not quite sure where I'll get it. Too bad walkinlikecain isn't here to give me a proper workout routine. I was in the best shape of my life when I trained with him. This is the longest I've been up all week. I think it's time to go back to bed. Current Mood: tired |
