    I can offer only a few words of consolidation: those who worry needlessly live short, so your misery won't last as long as it would if you were a happy person. :)

    Loosen up a few bolts, mmkay?

    Good.

    Yes, I'm a hair's breadth from becoming the sort of person who stands shirtless at the side of the road, shouting into traffic about the forthcoming end of the world. :)

    Everybody!!!!! I'm so excited I think I'm gonna explode!!!!!

    I was planning on attending the Conestoga 9 Fantasy Fiction Convention in Tulsa this weekend -- where George R.R. Martin (my favorite author!) is the guest of honor and will be speaking and doing book signings. Well, I sent an e-mail stating that I wanted to take some pictures for SP etc. and they sent back an invite to attend a small dinner they've having for him tomorrow night!!!! :D :rolling: :roll:

    I was only hoping to see him from afar -- but now I'll be meeting him close up and personal. They also said he'd do a private signing there too.


    I'm so thrilled to get to meet this guy!!!! :banana: :banana: :banana:

    London heatwaves are terrible. Sitting in the pub all day is a great way to stay cool.

    Enagonios -- Yea, seriously!!!!

    I'm freaking here -- trying to figure out hair, clothes, what to talk about....studying his bio. I only hope I don't freeze up and act like a moron!! ....or eat like a slob!! (maybe I'll just pick at my food with little bites). I get very self-conscious at these kinds of things.)
    But I'm too excited to care too much!!!

    That's pretty cool, Spellbound. Tell him you know plenty of people who have been waiting for ages for the rest of his books.

    .....Somehow, I think that would be like diving into a pool when it's raining to stay dry.

    Personally? Mac OSX (Tiger) here: Knoppix on the x86 for 2 more months- when I will get a 64-bit processor and will finally be able to use my Longhorn beta! yay!

    There was a shooting spree six blocks away at about 9pm tonight. I wasn't home, and almost couldn't get home due to police blocks.
    So far, I've heard two dead and three wounded, found at multiple sites within the mobile home park.
    The shooter is in custody now, he turned himself over after an hour long manhunt.

    This is NOT normal here, and people all around here pretty stunned.

    You know, hurricanes don't seem so bad... can I go back to worrying about hurricanes?

    @ Stephania

    Yeah, shootings suck. And hurricanes blow. *cue rimshot*

    I might be moving again, found a great little place in town, but not 'ín' town, so I hope I can make it work out. Just need to find a third roomie.

    I have been stuck with ME since 2001.

    I think I deserve a medal for my uber-patience.

    What's so bad about Windows ME, everybody seem to hate it. I got upgraded from win98 to winXP two years ago, everything's fine with me.

    Indeed.

    On a completely unrelated note, my head hurts.
