Beach Rose


























I took this photo last weekend on Cape Cod. Thinking of puddle. ♥

  2. Thinking of puddle too.

    And shaking my head about the editor Cat ran afoul of--I suspect she is a real handful for her boss. Cat--chalk it up to continuing education. We tend to be too trusting over the internet.

    Going in to work this morning--there was too much saved for me to finish last night before the witching hour, and I want to leave things in good order for my coworkers while I am (hopefully) on vacation next week. I plan to take a week off every time I turn sixty-five.

    TTFN

  3. Hmm. I turned 65 on August 11, 2001. What was a doing then? Probably working. I took a week off to go to the Worldcon in Philadelphia (The Millenium Philcon), but it was over the traditional Labor Day weekend.

    So0metimes Wroldcon is earlier in August. I seem to remember one year I was actually at Wroldcon for my birthday, but can't recall which year it was. As I mentioned here, my birthday was the day after thte 2007 Worldcon (Denvention) and I celebrated the day on top of Pike's Peak. This past year my birthday was the day before Penny and I got on the train for Reno.

    Then there was the year I co-hosted a Cegelis for Congress fundraiser on my birthday. Told my friends to donate in lieu of a present.

  4. Likewise thinking of puddle.

    Last night I finished the draft of the grant application I've been working on. I know there will be revisions, but just having a complete draft this early is a relief.

  7. Sent flowers to Puddle.Surely they'll reach her, since her last name is so unusual. But I did feel kind of stupid not knowing what floor she's on. Should have thought to ask listener. Oh well. All of life is a learning experience, I guess.

    It's lonesome around here without Puddle. I hope she gets well and comes back to us soon.

  8. No worries, Cat! They're supposed to double check the room number before they send to a patient anyway, because even when someone is still an inpatient, they are sometimes moved to a different room or even unit.

    Yesterday the number was 2124.

  9. Does that mean she's on the twenty-first floor? That gives me vertigo just thinking about it!

  12. Cat--reply above.

    Kinda tuckered out. But six days off. Good. Bosses saw me at work today. Left things in good order for my coworkers on Monday. And through the week, I hope.
