I am at my parents', and the Old Man is holding forth, as usual. I love being home! He had German beer for us. Lots of German beer. I am not quite drunk, but I am tired and could get drunk very easily...

I checked my email and I have 30 reviews for Vector's Challenge. Have not read them yet, but I will have fun tomorrow. And the username of the reviewer is snarkyangles31...heh, heh, heh...

Hello to [livejournal.com profile] the_gentleman who newly friended me.

We saw the Northern Lights on the trip up to the parents'. And I got to listen to my mix CD of the Saw Doctors and the Pogues twice. And I checked the parents' CD collection. I must go out tomorrow and get a lot of CDs so I can (v/i/o/l/a/t/e c/o/p/y/r/i/g/h/t l/a/w o/n a t/r/u/l/y m/a/s/s/i/v/e s/c/a/l/e) [don't know how to do the cool strikeout thing, sorry] make backups for my parents' personal use, to be stored at my place, tomorrow.

My brother has been working 13- and 20-hour shifts. And his roommate is nuts -- wedding planning and first year of law school this fall... After living with this crazy woman, my brother will probably elope if he ever gets married. (He is not engaged to his roommate...)

Time to go see what is happening in the Twin Cities this weekend...

A bit of a slight headache tonight due to lack of sleep and an excess of beer and heat.

Went out biking with my husband, on our single bikes -- first time in quite a while. It's like going from riding in an SUV to driving a Ferarri, due to the weird geometry of my bike. We went around the lakes and out on some of the new commuter trails. Then we stopped by the Lake Harriet Rose Garden. It was absolutely beautiful -- still a lot of roses in bloom.

Finally got through all the reviews from my fangirls on FAP. They are drawing fanart and trying to predict graphically when the next chapter of Vector's Challenge will come out. I wish they'd let my Muse know so She would enlighten me a bit...sigh. I am almost at the point where I am just going to take the missal and start writing the Sunday scenes from looking at the Mass readings...and I am seriously starting to think about seeing if Earthlink has webspace that I could archive the story and art on...

Went out shopping with Mom at Paperback Exchange and then at a used-clothing store. I found many Ray Bradbury books, and I decided to take a daring step and try some authors I haven't read before. Will Shetterly, John Maddox Roberts, etc...I also found a new suit, a very nice one. The only problem is that instead of being blue or gray, it is a dark green. It will probably be reserved for "I want to look different from the other lawyers on the team when I give the client the bad news." Ah well, at least I have some new silk blouses and scarves to wear for interviews. Trying to talk Mom into going to watch POTC; I told her last night that we could go and lech over Johnny Depp.

I would seriously love it if on [livejournal.com profile] nocturne_alley, [livejournal.com profile] potions_master had to visit Minneapolis, St. Paul, Milwaukee, or Washington, D.C. But at least he visited Chicago, so as a Midwesterner to the bone, I'll have to be content with that.

The Old Man is barbecuing. I need a shower, and I am hungry.

Edited to add: I think that [livejournal.com profile] isiscolo just friended me. Who here can remember the site that tells you who's friended you in the last x days?
