into the wild blue yonder

May 10, 2008 Stephanie Leary 4 Comments

The semester from hell being over (FINALLY), we are commencing de-stressing procedures by hopping on a plane to Seattle. Back in a week.

Mail-sorting conversation at our house…

Me, upon finding yet another stack of unopened mail on the dining room table: NOOOOO!
Michael: I found a Playboy offer in mine.
Me: Why don’t I get Playboy offers? All my offers are from Publishers Weekly and book clubs.
Michael: That’s because you know how to read.

    No, and in fact I didn’t find out about that convention until late last night. I probably would have gone, otherwise.

    We just had lunch at the Science Fiction Museum… photos in a moment.
