We are back in our home. I was so glad to sleep on our bed last night. Peter and Ariel went to the Ducks game last night. We watched “Masters of Science Fiction.” I missed Harlan’s cameo but it was pointed out to me later.<\/p>\n
Today I could have gone to Foxwoods for the day. But due to a long sit my back is not in the best of conditions, I didn’t feel like sitting for about 5 hours total. So instead I am going to take care of some things that need to be taken care of.<\/p>\n
I am starting to get ready for DragonCon. I am packing up the stuff I need for my panel on Puppetry. But for those who want to know what I am doing panel-wise I have my schedule. (Which I am putting behind the cut to save those of you who really don’t care)<\/p>\n
I have a lot to do but I think I can get it done in time but it is gonna be a close thing.<\/p>\n
I am grateful for extra time.<\/p>\n
