Yet more busyness -- this time with fashionable spectacles
Yeah, yeah, I know -- I keep disappearing. Blame it on the need to make a new dance costume coupled with blahness from a cold. I'm trying to get revved up for the con this weekend -- I'm only on two panels and my Saturday is completely open (so I'll need to see about luring Jeff and Selina out to the parking lot for some fencing practice), so this may be a Con Lite(TM) for me. Which isn't necessarily bad or anything, especially the way I'm feeling. One bright point, however -- with all the weightlifting, bellydancing and Synthroiding I've been doing recently, I dropped a size in pants and had to get smaller trousers on Friday. Booyah!
Oh, and among other good news, the glasses were in yesterday, so I skipped out early during lunch and picked them up. They're nice, but it's going to take some getting used to -- for one thing the prescription is weaker than before because my eyes actually improved a bit (it's just a stop on the road to farsightedness, apparently -- whee), and I'm now used to having such a narrow field of vision.
But they look nice,
and I got a lot of compliments on them at work, which is always cool. Now I
just have to get through FutureClassics
tonight (man, I have got to get my ass in gear and get something ready for submission),
and another day will be over.
