Weekend Updates
I've been busy, yet not...life sometimes does that to you, eh?
Got some great news on the Lodge front. I'd been trying to arrange to have the carpets cleaned (they are seriously disgusting and probably haven't been professionally cleaned in five years) without having to shell out $5K to get it done. 10000sqf is a lot of carpet; luckily one of the guys who owns a local cleaning company belongs to the Lodge. Their tech called me on Friday to tell me they are going to do the job FOR FREE. That is super-awesome. OMG. Whew.
Went out with the grrlz on Saturday for midnightcircle's birthday, to Fujiyama. Got to meet
wryren's adorable daughter Anna and meet/see the rest of the group (
a2zany,
madlori,
wryren, Anna,
midnightcircle,
pattinthehat, Rachel's Jim and
rachet). Ren also bought us all Cold Stone ice cream, which was very sweet on his part.
I forgot that I had never posted the pictures of our Harry Potter party at work! You can see the pictures I took here, and there is a Flikr slideshow here. Seriously, the amount of work that went into this thing...holy crap. I bow to those who have the creative wherewithal to pull something that big off.
Other than that...I've not got much to say on the whole LJ/6A deletion wank, other than I'm not planning to go anywhere. I have journals on the other sites, and I can easily update/check friendslists over at GJ/JF. Nowhere is safe, people, from the nanny state. I'm gonna follow photosinesis' advice and fill up my galleries, do phone posts (maybe), and fill my userpics - make 6A pay to have me here, then let my account lapse to free.
I feel so boring! Right now it's work, work, work, climb, run, work, work, work, climb, run....rinse and repeat.
This week, however: I will be going to the fair. I think I should take my trusty camera along and take pictures while I people-watch. And eat lots of things that are served on a stick. Mmm, corn dogs.
