So, the AAS meeting was AMAZING My poster was quite well received for being about the Gendered Obstacles Faced by Historical Women in Physics and Astronomy. AND I met simply tons of interesting people (lots of whom wanted to offer me jobs or internships at their locations, very nice indeed ^.^). AND I have a ton of swag (anyone want a free Spitzer calendar?). AND, for some interesting reason, my interest in my major has been revitalized. I am pleased by the future possibilities, the random situations where I might end up. I like the idea of being an instrumentation scientist at one of various locations. I like the prospects of my career and being able to be involved in astronomy while still getting to fiddle with things. So, on a lovely astronomy related note, check out MESSENGER , this supersweet thing to visit Mercury. Which is pretty nice, 'cause a lot of Mercury's a mystery. Now I'd like to be on the instrumentation team for THAT :D... In other news: my room is CLEAN! very very clean. And I have stuff to get rid of, which may go up on eBay, unless ya'll want some.... a desk lamp, some stuffed animals, corded phones, and a bunch of games (scrabble, Tipover, Rush hour (I think most of the collection), and some computer games (medieval quest, I of the dragon), and a bunch of CDs that teach you calculus, business, biology, french, and maybe some other stuff. I don't really know. Oh, and a pair of dark blue gloves, new, very soft, and pretty large. And some juggling balls and a squishy star from the US Naval Observatory and one of those cool brick toys where you turn it and it interchanges images on its face. And a four port USB hub, and a laser pointer, though that is most likely going to the lab. *thinks*. And some acrylic yarn in varied shades of blue and purple. And some shoulder bags. (I tell you, I have a lot of crap) Let me know if you want anything, or maybe I'll get you a surprise christmas gift. mwahahaha. MadCityWriters tomorrow, very excited. I can't tell you how much I love the group and wish I could spend more time working on writing. I'm going to try yet again to be organized this semester so perhaps in my free time I'll enjoy writing instead of rereading webcomic archives. |

Stories I'm currently working on. | |||
***Tbook1 (Time and Chaos, needs a new name, needs to be edited) ***Book of Sun (Just needs to be edited. Tis a Nano novel) ***Book of Whispers part 1 (Does not jive at all with part 2; needs to be rewritten to fit and to have less suckage) ***Book of Whispers part 2 (Needs some rehaul editing, needs some loose ends tied up, needs to fit) ***Book of Whispers part 3 (Needs to be finished... then needs to die o.o Not sure if I need a third part in the series) ***Dium's Story (Needs a point, progress, anything... needs to be integrated into Tbook1, since that is what it is a part of, mainly) ***Trio Story with Jackie and Louise (Maybe we should get together and work on this, guys) ***Demon Story (This is working out pretty good so far. I like the plot, it's a bit convoluted, and the characters are interesting) ***New Witch Story (It's only 30 pages long, dang) ***Dragon's Voices (This has SO much potential! wee!) | |||

1.) You are getting rid of Rush Hour???? Man, you used to love that game.
2.) By the large, dark blue gloves, are those the ones that I may have the same ones in red?????
If so, I am calling dibs on these.
yeah, it was a fantastic game, but I never have time to play games any more, much less do more vital things like read books :)
*cough* yes. those are the gloves. I shall give them to you for your birthday, amongst other things :D
