Busy Busy Busy

• Two doctor's appointments today (including the final! meeting! with the foot doctor, wherein I am hoping to be given permission to hop, skip, and jump if I wish to--which I don't so much wish to right now, because it still hurts a bit, but at least I know I could if I wanted to).

• A three hour meeting at Avocado's high school about planning for college (sheesh--she just started 9th grade! I know. Things are different today. But it's a good thing I have a cane that I can brandish while I bitch about In My Day).

• Early walk for Emily, followed by hours of benign neglect while I'm out of the house doing all these things. By the time I get home tonight she will certainly be writing emails to PETA about the mistreatment.

• Packing and gathering for World Fantasy, for which I leave at 0.2.Early tomorrow am.

• Watching Glee.

• Coloring Avocado's hair (she's going as Stacy Pilgrim as a set piece with Sarcasm Girl and The Beau, who are Ramona and Scott Pilgrim).

• Trying to put together Spouse's costume for the Skywalker Halloween party, for which I will not be present. It's both minimalist and high concept--mostly I just need glue and some screen caps.

If you don't see me for 24 or so, it's not that I don't love you, it's just...flutter, flutter, flutter.
