Happy birthday to magenta_girl and scouseboy!

Lots of fatigue yesterday.

WTD
Dudes and dudettes, I am doing Shayara because a bunch of you said you'd sponsor me if I did. I am just sayin'. *looks meaningfully at PayPal*

Mall Of Shadesong
All done! Go shop. I'll be shopping once I do my Thankgiving-dinner shopping. (If you're planning to bring a dish, please say so on the eVite! Also, we have one person with celiac, so if you have an awesome gluten-free dish...)

Link Soup
* Saving short fiction?
* Search LIFE's photo archive!

Plans
WTD, and the writing I've been wanting to tackle: Large Fandom Collider and New Gods, the bonuses for the September WTD. They're the last short pieces on the docket, so I'm excited to clear that and work on longer stuff, but, y'know, when do I have time?

Today's an early release day, so I have Miss Kid from noon onward. We have to pick up our bridesmaid dresses, and she's getting her flu shot. Tonight is date night with Adam. :)

Elayna will be in her school's musical, "Once on This Island".

So will her friends E. and A., and dude, have I mentioned lately how awesome her friends are? She hangs with a crowd of singing, musical-instrument-playing, writing, drawing, Shakespeare geek, SF/F geek, Girl Scoutin' kickass chicks. Fantastic supportive network of friends. She is so lucky.

In other my-daughter-is-awesome news, she made her humanities teacher go "wow" with her Holocaust monologue - and was the only kid in her class asked to give her monologue to another class.

Made of awesome. I'm tellin' you.

My anaconda don't want none unless you got buns, hon.
