Apr. 1st, 2009 09:07 pmThe following items are all true.
1. I sent the tentacle fic link to my mom. She has been asking about it since I first blurted that I was working on it. This is going to be interesting.
2. Some professors took our class out for dim sum on Monday in Chinatown. Mm. I finally found out that the jiggly, seared white rectangles I loved when my friend Ellen and I went for dim sum a couple of years ago in New York are not fish-related at all but in fact turnip cakes. And then tonight was one of the bimonthly dinners in my residence, catered from a Thai place across the river. Also mm. It more than made up for the canteloupe I bought this week, which has managed to be both under- and overripe.

muskratjamboree attendees will start to gather in town tomorrow night. It's going to be nice to see a couple of friends/acquaintances again over the next few days, and hopefully to meet some of the people on the list whose stories I've loved for a long time. Though I'm intensely ambivalent about one attendee who once insulted me without ever having met me, which still hurts, even years later. I've been to cons both fannish and non-, but never a slash con. I hope it will be fun. I hope having to miss a handful of panels because of school-related things won't leave me too far behind in the socializing.
4. They showed Twilight on the flight to Florida, so I finally got to see it, and without paying anything, which was even better. Unpopular fannish opinion: I had fun watching it. ( Honest! )
5. I wanted to write a mimic poem like Thirteen Ways of Looking at Rodney for National Poetry Month today, but that doesn't seem to be happening.
…Can you tell I'm avoiding my work?
