Pixel-Stained Technopeasantry

[kiya]

I have met my 23 April deadline for my webzine article. (lupabitch, it has a tangential reference to something I was going to do because of F&F,B&B; haven't got my ducks in a row yet, but you're footnoted.) It won't be up for a bit, but I think that's the best I'm gonna do. Thanks as always to brooksmoses for first-reading me and telling me when my sentences are pretzeled.

It's oddly comforting to go to a restaurant, place an order, and have the waitress say, "Like you always get, yes?" I am a creature of habits, and I find it comforting when people know how to take care of me.

First ballgame I got to actually watch this year. Not a bad one to do, though I was out stacking buckets for the back-to-back-to-back-to-back homers. arawen appears to think my reactions to him are hysterical. I just ... buckets.

Fair warning to all and sundry: I'm really feeling quite existentialist in not exactly angsty ways, but sort of quietly contemplative and slightly broody ones. If you crack my shell, you will hatch out small sharp birds of the nature of being real. Or possibly small sharp Velveteen Rabbits, but I don't think those live in eggs.

Good article + footnote = Sweet :) You'll post a link when it's up, I assume?

It's linked with my real name, which I tend to only do obliquely here, but it was sent to RTV, so I'm sure you'll be able to find it. ;)

*grin* Good taste too, then :)

The nature of being real.

Several dreams about that one lately, possibly sparked by all the presence-stuff.

Tivo...

At least not much past Easter.

The amount of stuff that can fit in arawen's car is insane (and possibly legendary).

(...now I want to estimate its carrying capacity in buckets...)

Many.
