Still Alive

World Fantasy was awesome. And very low on internet-connectedness. Which actually felt kinda good. We were relating to real people in real time. You know, like in the olden days.

But now we have left San Diego and have headed north, a bit, and are staying in The Spiffiest Motel 6 Evar. I mean, seriously: it has a LOBBY. And there are DOWN COMFORTERS on the beds. (Really! I brought my own comforter, and it is not needed!) This, plus the third of a bottle of Ardbeg Uigeadail that the Marquise and Marquis gifted me (because, alas, they cannot carry it on the plane home…) makes this a tremendously comfortable Birthday Eve.

Because, yes, tomorrow is my birthday. Mark and I are going to Catalina, all day–so, probably not much more internetting tomorrow either.

It’s being an incredible trip so far. More to come, I know.

Yet, in the interest of balance, I leave you with a most disturbing picture….the fake orchid in our room at WFC was so fake, it actually hurt to look at it. Okay, I’m sensitive, but still.
