Absent Insanity...

[liralen]

Uhm. Right.

Disappeared for a while and about to disappear again. You know what they say about Las Vegas... and what I'm about to do will probably just stay there.

However... I never quite finished what happened on the way home, or after. Like driving through Dallas, and up the 287 through tiny towns all through Texas, which was a lot of fun, but we got home on Sunday, and then I dove into the insanity of the release of Winter's Knight with demented_dee. It's out. The debris of the day is still on torquere_social for April 11th.

AND I got galleys for the print versions of both Winter's Knight AND Hearts Under Fire. They're both going to be in *print*, people!! Holy smokes. I'll be able to *hold* them.

AND I started my garden, got the bee boxes together, wrote a 16,000 word Naruto fic on fire play (which I'll post here after I'm back from Las Vegas), and started actually cold calling people for church, which I'm going to have to get BETTER at, and knit a scarf/shawl for Jet's teacher, and did dozens of episodes of One Piece with Jet, and made more sweet potato noodles which actually dried very well...

AND... uhm... I should be falling over, but I'm flying to Vegas this afternoon. *giggles*

And I'll probably write an account of the last drive while in the airport, with pictures as THEY are up on Flickr. All of them, in their road trip glory....

See you on the other side.

Wow. All I can say is... well, wow.

I am stunned by how much you get done. And greatly admire you for doing so.

Have a great time in Las Vegas! I will catch up with you when you are catchable. ;)

Yes! Yes you will...

It was a wonderful time, but I am soooo sore!

It's been busy lately, but I also think it's to keep my mind off of other things.

[incandescens]

If so, entirely reasonable and understandable.

Wow. You are superbusyLiralen! Congratulations on the books, that's wonderful!

Eek coldcalling. Are you fundraising, or reaching out to people to join?

*hugs you happily*

I'm just calling on people for various jobs... it's not to join or anything, just a particular set of needs we have right now.

*hugs you solidly* BOOK! Hee.

[archangelbeth]

You have been busy!

Have a safe trip!

[liralen.livejournal.com]

I have been!!

Thank you! It was really odd, but one of the ladies broke her arm, so your wish is very much appreciated.

Hope you dressed warm! Cold and rainy for Vegas this weekend...

[liralen.livejournal.com]

We didn't!! I actually was lucky and brought a good solid coat with me, but some of were shivering as we went!

3000 miles for your road trip is more than I drive in a year these days. Scary. Nice food pictures, as expected (*grin*). The lupine was fun to see as well. I forget that it's so early in Texas.

[liralen.livejournal.com]

It is a lot of miles, but we seem to be pretty used to it.

YAY FOR FOOOD! Lupines! Bluebonnets they seem to call them down there...

It's really summer already in Texas. Whew...
