Well, I have lot of choices, all of which doesn’t seem all that attractive currently.  On one hand, I can go to the Amtgard event this weekend in Colmsnel, TX.  I’ve not been to one in a long time, it would be fun, but gawd, the politics in Amtgard have been knarley as of late.  I don’t know if I want to put up with it.  However, it would be fun to go to court in my latest Steampunk stuff.  haha.

Two, there is a meeting this weekend of the ApolloCon con committee.  We are pretty much done with all our set up stuff, all that remains for Media is to get to the con and set up.  I’ve sent them all my flyer data and stuff.  Twice now.  I have yet to see it posted on the site.  I have heard nothing back to if they couldn’t read it or if it wasn’t good enough, still or what.  I may just post it here and send out a link to the flyer.  I’d post it right now but it’s at home on the laptop.  You know, the one that is too big to fit on my lap on the bus?  I really should keep that data on the iPod at least.   I’ll post the just of it on a page on this site and update it later.

There is a third option, I can go help out at Plankowners at the Elissa this Saturday, but gawd, I still am in recovery from the Elissa right now.  More on that later.

Other updates:

I’ve changed the icons to gravatars.  You can go online to www.gravatar.com to create your gravatar.  All you do is create a username and email you use for all your blogs and sites and upload an avatar that you will use for all of them.  It automaticly downloads the avatar when you create a membership with that email address.  It’s actually kind of cool.

I think I have installed enough crossposting software to completely annoy just about every blog I’ve ever gotten a membership on.

I’ve gotten a chat program working though the site.  It is based on google talk.  I have found another one that had more features that uses another program, but I don’t think I have any friends on that service.  I did find an irc based one, but I was never able to get that one configured.  It was also too tied to an adult irc company and even though it was their G rated version, I don’t know if I want to go there regardless.

Else, I am about to do some overhauling on the Cafepress site. I am working on a revamp of my chapbooks (I didn’t realize just how much has changed since I’ve written those.) and I’ve picked up a lot of new Hubble shots to make new stuff. I’ve also revamped the Calendar and may make a few more if I get time.
At the very least, I can stay home and work on the boat. There is always something to do at home.
