Too Much Fun
Aug. 9th, 2009 06:51 pmWell, the city got its part of the job done Thursday, and Anthony Plumbing showed up bright and early Friday morning and took care of the rest of it, so there is no longer an ever-widening hole in the front yard, and we even have better water pressure than before. Now, the question is what to do to keep the dirt on the slope of the front yard where it is, as opposed to washing away when it finally rains again.
the evening was highlighted by the "we're not at worldcon, damnit!" party. Kalimeg came by and presented me with a bottle of Unibroue's Terrible, my fave of their many fine beers. Athenaartemis, her new sister Skylar and uncle Lyle also came by, as did the injured Robin Bailey anhis long-suffering wife Diana. With the Royals kicking the crap out of the As as a background, we talked worldcons, fandom and many other topics, and as the beer and wine (for the legal drinkers) flowed, things got stranger, and ended with the creation of Maya Con Dios: Chicxulub in 2012 -- It's the End of the WorldCon as We Know It! Details to follow.
Woke up this morning feeling very well, and did some cleanup here in the belfry. Had a quiet interlude on the porch with a tasty Perdomo Lot 23 torpedo and a bottle of Great Divide's 15th Anniversary Oak Aged Double IPA.
Now, after a tasty dinner of pork chops and wild rice, I am preparing to quasi-liveblog the Hugos, right here from Kansas City. So stay tuned, people, for fun, excitement and surprises galore.
