today's happy list...
∞ Suavez's remix of I Don't Care
∞ Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday's activities include seeingBlack Gold, The Offspring, Rise Against, Alkaline Trio, and Steel Train
∞ Halloween is in one week! It is my very favorite holiday, not so much for the trick-or-treating, which I hated when I was younger (and really, that's a weird activity, when you think about it - we send kids out to demand goods and threaten retaliation if said goods are not sufficient), but because in the more temperate climes in which I've lived it's the end of autumn, beginning of winter, the last harvest. The true end of the year to me. Plus? I love the costumes, pretending to be someone or something else for one night. AND? Because we're having a party, I have a valid reason to make the best ever pumpkin dessert (NOT PUMPKIN PIE, which is gross and disgusting) and not have leftovers. It's ~12000 calories of butter and brown sugar and pumpkin per serving, and I love it but don't make it unless I know I can give 99% of it to other people.
∞ The librarians at the Calvert County Public Library rock. Libraries and librarians ≠ parents.
∞ According to USPS, my copy of Razia's Shadow (I assume - that's the only thing I've ordered from FBR's webstore lately, so I don't know what else I'd be getting a notice for) is IN HOUSTON. *taps foot impatiently*
In which MrIris and I were/are complete and utter GEEKS: we were standing up by a set of entry stairs at Reliant Arena last night, watching people filter into the GA area, and he turned to me and said, "They're like a Langmuir film, and the people at the barrier are the Stern layer. They're all self-assembling down by the stage, and the back there (*waves at the entrance*) is the bulk fluid, with the people drifting in and settling." AND I TOTALLY LAUGHED AT HIS ANALOGY. *facepalm*
