Productive ... Maybe

Fresh when it gets here from Julie Barrett
Tuesday, March 3, 2009


I've been in a bit of a hovering mode today, waiting on things to happen. I was waiting on the go-ahead to do one thing, and a long-promised communication from someone else so I could finish off some other items.

Got the go-ahead this morning and did what I was supposed to do, only there was a bit of a snag with part of it. Probably a server issue, so at this point I have no choice but to wait it out. Parties have been notified.

On the second, well, it'll happen when it happens. I think events have sort of overtaken some of the people involved.

Oh, well.

I drove across town to Borders this morning. I am still on my quest for an interesting pair of reading glasses, and remembered seeing some there a couple of weeks ago. They weren't quite what I was looking for. I want something that's a bit different, but I don't want bling or rhinestones or animal prints or any of that stuff. It's not me. I probably just need to stop whining and pull something off the rack. Most of the interesting ones are $50+, and I'm not putting out that kind of money.

I did pick up a couple of books, so it wasn't a lost trip.

Ah, the second thing just happened. Out of hover mode. Except it wasn't quite what I was expecting to see. This could be interesting...

Julie! I was thinking of you recently as I was wandering around Facebook, and then just heard Dean was not coming to the Con, went to the website and found your name there (I'm not coming either).

So nice to find you again (and in the same place. just forgot where it was)

Pam! It's so nice to hear from you! I didn't see the news until this morning. Sorry he won't be able to make it.

And thanks for the heads up on the design issue. I'll take a look and see if I can fix that.
