Sorry, put this post in the wrong place. Let me try this again.For those of you not on Facebook, here's the pics I took at Geek Kon 2011:Ooh, it slideshows all by itself! Nifty!Anyhow, the convention was awesome--got to meet Sonny Strait, Jerry Jewell, John Kovalic and loads of wonderful folk of all kinds. I didn't get around nearly as much as I wanted to though--the hotel was horribly hot and I

Great. It's supposed to snow 8-15 inches here before 7 pm tomorrow night.And the Internet is icky too--turns out this scam really is a scam.Someone calls your house and tells you that you missed Jury Duty you never knew you had and that there's a bench warrant out for your ass. THEN they tell you they can "clear it up" if you prove who you are, by giving a Social or a major credit card number

Now that I have thyroid problems not solved by standard treatment, I have doctors once again trying to push me into taking crap from the Prozac family, like the one in the title--they pick that one because of the claims in advertising connecting it to chronic pain. Well, I read a website that says there's a better way to do it. Check this out:see more Lolcats and funny picturesI bet there are

I'm not into mornings.

Trolls. We see new ones every day, thanks to the explosion in cheap, broadband Internet combined with the cost of computers coming down nearly every day. Someday, I've often said to myself, it'd be nice if trolls would just get hobbies other than starting argumnents on the Internet, but instead of learning that there's more fun to be had elsewhere, they've not only stuck to their form of fun, but

The infamously strangling "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy on homosexuality in the military has been given the kick in the ass that it has deserved since Day One of its 17-year caging of the GLBT community within the military. The presiding judge of the lawsuit brought in 2004 by the Log Cabin Republicans, the largest gay Republican organization in the nation, declared "Don't Ask, Don't Tell"

I did get my pics up from GeekKon 2010, complete with a promo for my soap from a most unusual source: The guy who posed for this pic in Artists' Alley just did it on the spur of the moment--he picked up an Acne Death in each hand and said to snap the shot.

Hi, honey, I'm home!I spent the weekend in Madison, WI at Geek|Kon, a convention for geekdom in all its many forms. This year's convention had more anime available, especially in panels and video. They also invited two absolutely great voice actors, Christopher Ayres and Eric Vale, and the only way to describe them is to say they're absolutely stellar. While I didn't get tons of time to play, I

I love General Tso's Chicken--it's that "what I always order" thing from Chinese restaurants. Actually I order a lot of different things, but when it's been awhile since I've had a chance to get Chinese food, it's what I go for first. Well, that and an order of Crab Rangoon, but you get the idea.If you really love Chinese food, the first time thru is awesome--hot crunchy veggies, tasty seasoned

Thanks Kyle Hebert for posting this to Facebook.(Will post URLs for DaishoCon pics when I get over Con Crud and get them off the memory cards. Special thanks to Travis Willingham for being so much fun to be around and to everyone who took pics of Lady Kaede.)

While I'm normally gone a couple days a weekend (off actually having a life, unlike others I could name), there are the occasional weekends where I leave for three or four days. Those are usually "Con Weekends", con being short for "convention", because I have this admiration for Japanese animation and those who bring the industry to life in America (oh, and Hi Kyle! Thanks for the autograph.)

It's Chrisziggy from A Little Ol'Factory, a great supplier and wonderful savonier--I've gotten some of my best hoardables from her group buys.Check out this article for the info--and I do have some of these EO's that I can pack and ship fairly quickly if you're interested.

I'm still alive. Very sleepy much of the time, but alive.It's been an insane several months. I did have the surgery. Two days later I started losing control over my right hand. While I was discussing that shit with my surgeon (as fast as my "good" hand could dial) I started losing control of the other hand.

...more doctor's appointments than I've ever had in a month in my freaking LIFE!The biopsy's clear, but due to the size I'm still having the thyroid out. It'll be a quick procedure but a little tough. It'll be later this month, after yet another physical, a quick jaunt thru the endocrinologist so I find out about after care, follow-up care, hormonal care, pill care, picture/image/ultrasound care,

Some of my activities make it not just helpful but necessary to sign up for Crackbook, and so I have done so. Now that we can add our blogs to it, I've put the widget up, so if those of you who are also Crackbookheads will do me the favor of verifying that this is indeed mah bl0g, I'd very much appreciate it.Tomorrow's the biopsy--I should have results in a couple of days and will post when I do.

I'm scheduled for a needle biopsy for my thyroid for Tuesday. It's definitely coming out; the surgeon just wants to rule out cancer before deciding which procedure to use and how much to take out. Meanwhile I could bitch about the symptoms dragging my ass to the ground but it wouldn't do much good. Mostly I'll be fighting what I can as well as I can until then. Once we have the biopsy results

Still sick, believe it or not--doctors tell us the "creeping crud" is running around the area, so my doctor awarded me a nasal rinser without finding out that water up my nose makes me panic, so I guess it shows how much time HE took on that, before writing me a prescription I couldn't fill and was forced to surrender.

I need only one more thing for Christmas:I only need the PS's arms wrapped around me, his body holding mine close and his lips leaning in to kiss me softly and sweetly, warming me gently since it's a little cold in the house and I could use a little bit of warm-up. I'll be seeing him in about an hour to get exactly that--meanwhile, I'll have to settle for craving feelings I can imagine until he

I'm not kidding (and someone could be kidding me, but I don't think this would last long as a joke because there's crews at NORAD who are paid to not have a sense of humor who would not appreciate this

Chris Pirillo over at his blog has set up the most insane contest.Once he and his wife got a chance to go shopping for a non-profit organization--given $500 to go get toys. He got such a kick out of doing it that this year he's put together THREE packages each worth about $500 (the sales slip from Sears is in his post if you think this is bullshit) and he's giving them the heck away (yes, I'm

I just realized while reading this meme on another blog (stupid me lost the address but I've seen it all over the place) that it's been a very long while since I've said much of a personal nature.So, since I know this meme so well from seeing it on other blogs, you probably do too--it's a list of 100 things and you highlight the ones you've done. Hopefully this will let new readers get to know me

ANNOUNCEMENT:I'm shutting down on shipping anything from Dec. 17, 2008 at 5 pm Central time to January 31, 2009, with the exception of sales posted after January 1, 2009. It's simply not possible to continue to work during that time and still guarantee pre-Christmas delivery. I also have a family and friends who need my attention (and a bar of soap here and there) during this holiday season, and

This sale has ended--watch for our after-Christmas sales coming soonHi, everyone,I was pouring candles for orders last night and actually heated too much wax for the order. I wound up with two 4-oz Applejack and Peel candles (normally priced at $4.50 each, for a total of $9). The scent is wonderful and perfect for the holidays, so I'd like to find a buyer for these great candles.I'll send these

My mom had the same neighbors for years. They were mostly nice folks; the head of the household got crabby about a few things, but they did have a girl close to my youngest brother's age when my mom moved here right around my 21st birthday.
