RTBTCKI (The Is There a Word for Absurdly Hot Edition)
Posted By Kathleen David on July 22, 2011
Yesterday was miserable outside even with a breeze coming up off the water. Outside was a place that you didn’t want to be and it is not going to be much better today.
Almost passed out at bowling last night. I haven’t been 100% for a couple of days. Been feeling a little off and walking around the city just jumped that quite a bit. I tried to stay hydrated but I think I didn’t do a good job of it. So today is going to be a lot about staying hydrated and cool.
Caroline has bounced back from our visit in the city. I have had her keep a sports bottle of water with her while playing and drinking from it. I can keep an eye on how much she drank by the numbers on the side of the bottle. She did pretty well.
Brain fog must go away. I have too much to do.
May have sorted out how I am going to do my prop for DragonCon. So the order of things is the uniform, the prop, and then everything else.
41 days to DragonCon! I am going to be posting this every day so I can really see where I am rather than keeping it an the abstract
I got my preliminary schedule from DragonCon. It’s busy but not overly busy. It does tell me a couple of things I need to bring with me for various panels. I am checking about a couple of panels I requested to be on. There is one I just might hop on if the panelists will let me.
I may take Caroline swimming today.
Football isn’t solved. Not by a long shot. I am seeing half a season if that.
Ok worked out where I need to go and when. I can do all the errands before noon.
Been listening to a lot of soundtracks and Broadway shows. For a while I wasn’t listening to music but I seem to be back to it.
Peter is having his usual adventures at SDCC. You can read about it at his blog. Someone asked me if I have a problem with my husband going off to SDCC without me. The answer is No. I go to enough conventions during the year that I have my convention fix. Also SDCC is a business convention for him as is NYCC. A lot of the professionals there are lining up work for the next year or so. I have done SDCC and know exactly what kind of animal it is. Also Caroline is not ready for a convention of that size. I told her we would re-examine the issue when she got to double digits which will be in 2012. Yes, you read that right. Caroline will be 10 next year.
I am hoping that we have new My Little Pony episodes soon. I am getting truly sick of the old ones.
I have two special presents happening on my Birthday this year. The last episode of the current season of Torchwood and the release of X-Men First Class on DVD.
I am grateful for “air cool” as Miss Daisy called it. I had a lot of fun stage managing that show a number of years ago.
As for as “absurdly hot” the closest that I can get without a thesaurus is “sweltering.”
As for Caroline turning 10 next year…unpossible. She can’t be more than 5 at most.
Darn. I’m old.
