2eclipsebut the dream didn't quite make it to reality. i also dreamed about work. figures.
actually, i kinda slept for shit last night in general.
i will pay for that today, but so far the caffeine is sustaining me nicely.
mostly ross and i had a quiet weekend of bashing heads with diablo ii and some online friends. beat the game and are talking about going back for the nightmare level. it should be interesting.
amy came over for a while saturday, and then we wound up going to hell's kitchen sunday in celebration of her birthday and afterward hitting the macy's flower show. it wasn't anything as spectacular as the philadelphia flower show - this is something put on for free by a corporate headquarters. still it smelled good and there were many hyacinths. we have yet to have anything really blooming here yet (and actually had a dusting of snow sunday morning), so seeing all the color was really nice.
hell's kitchen, as always, is spectacular. how can you go wrong with bloody marys and bison sausage? it was the first time we've been to their new location and i had 2 cups of coffee, not realizing how late it was - hence the sleeping for shit last night.
i finished peony in love by lisa see. it is WAY more fanciful than snow flower and the secret fan, but it had a similar feel. if you liked the one, you will probably like the other.
i am currently working on a book called shadowbridge by gregory frost. i am loving the premise. we'll see if it stays good. if it's all as good as the beginning however, i may have to read everything this guy has written.
it is official that i will be attending the nuptuals one![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
kfringe to the beautiful and brilliant crowyhead. i'm not going to croquet and i'm not going to estes. i'm damned if i'm also missing this! i am terribly excited to finally meet her in person as well as some of the rest of the philly knitting/lj/book-reading crowd that seems to surround her. but it also sounds like there will also be many johnnies attending. also they are getting married in a bar. only kfringe. admittedly it is sounding like a damn good time. hopefully ross will be able to come with me and will not have another musical.
i still have not seen watchmen. this needs to happen.
also cirque du soliel will be in town the weekend of july 3rd - which is AFTER ross's show and means he will be able to go. and might be while my folks are here - they have not confirmed if they are coming this summer or not. i would really like to get a big group of people together to go to this.patchhat?, sidhebear?, wilderheart and eltanin?, oneonajourney? any of you guys interested? any of you people i didn't mention?
this week is my last week of literacy training classes. i am REALLY looking forward to them being over. i want to be working with people, not sitting in a classroom feeling like my time is being wasted.
also my winter twilight mitts are starting to show how awesome they are going to be. i love the bright contrast of the colors. these are a very personal project. the cashmere was a gift from my brother and sister-in-law from the farm where my nephew works, hand-dyed and knit by me. lots of meaning compact into a little thing.

Date: 2009-04-06 02:10 pm (UTC)We are coming this summer. You wanted us to come around June 20 was my understanding. We have annual conference beginning the weekend before that. it ends on wednesday and we were thinking we would drive out there Fri. or Sat. What do you think?

Date: 2009-04-06 02:29 pm (UTC)i have already sent them pics of the dye-job i did. no response back yet.
i think you should plan to BE here on friday or saturday so that you can catch ross's musical. the 20th is its closing weekend. i heard dad was planning on coming, but generally until i hear exact dates from you, i don't count on anything. :)

Date: 2009-04-08 07:47 pm (UTC)i do NOT take it to mean you are the only one who is interested.
cirque is amazing. most of my friends are just slackers.
i'm guessing we've got plenty of time before it is necessary to make the actual purchase since they are just starting to advertise. i'd like at least to give it a few weeks so that we can gather all interested parties. :)
i sent you my e-mail. i will keep you posted.
