We’re aiming to move next Sunday, despite the fact that we’re flying east tomorrow and won’t be back until Saturday evening. Needless to say, we’re busy here in the Whitt house.
My new suitcase arrived just a few minutes ago, and it’s lovely. Now I get to pack it for its first […]

We rolled into our apartment complex a little after 5:00 yesterday, having stopped at a grocery store on the way into town to get things like milk and eggs. The whole drive was pleasant (aside from the raging thunderstorms in Kansas, but we were moving west and they were moving east, so it worked […]

I forgot to update yesterday, but we arrived in Syracuse without any trouble. We visited with family yesterday, and I have to say that I’m wiped out this morning. Most of the folks staying at the house are over painting so that Matt’s aunt and uncle can move into their new house next […]

We drove for 22 hours yesterday, from 4:30am mountain time to 4:30am eastern time. Matt has already agreed to split the return drive into two days, which makes me happy. Otherwise, it was a blissfully uneventful drive. We identified the place in Kansas (outside Manhattan) where we almost died two years ago. […]

Had run on Friday and Saturday at WorldCon. Found more people I know, good food, etc. Had to leave after lunch on Saturday because our good friends were getting married, so we went to the wedding and did a lot of swing dancing at the reception (whee swing dancing!). Got home late, […]

Sixteen hours from leaving the hotel this morning to arriving at my apartment tonight.
I think I might be dead, but I don’t have enough energy to check. I’ll let you know in the morning.
Good night.

I has it.
I did take pictures around campus, but they’re not online yet, so I can’t post them. I don’t think I took a picture of a single person all week, so if you’re hoping to get something like that, you’re going to be disappointed. But there are some cool photos. […]

I’ve been quiet for the last few days getting ready for our leap-frog trips. The house is clean, my desk is clean, my critiques are done, my bags are packed, and I’m all set to leave the house at 3:30 in the morning. Whee! I’m so excited. I’ve got work to […]

We’re home.
It’s 6pm, Denver time, and I’ve been up for 17 hours.
Airline score:
US Airways - Negative 26.7 bajillion
Midwest Airlines - Way more than that.
My brain can’t compute anything complex at the moment, but aside from being a little late (maybe 20 minutes?) nothing went wrong as soon as we shook the USAir […]

I’ve been quiet this week - that’s in part because my brain got just a bit fried on Saturday when I finished the novel’s rough draft, and I’ve been doing as little as possible since then in an effort to let it recuperate.
Yesterday was our three year wedding anniversary. (Woohoo! Go us!) I spent most of […]
