Well, I suggested it and Axel is making it happen. "2013 needs to die in a fire" is happening on December 14.

Ping me if you need directions.

In happier news, you know how we said we were going to invite people over to get rid of our books and weird boozes?

Saturday November 17. Ping me if you need address/directions.

There's also other random stuff like candlesticks (oh my sainted aunt the candlesticks), knickknacks and general object d'"where the hell did this come from".

Somebody asked if they could bring their own collection of stuff to give away and I say, bring it on. All our crap is going to Value Village if nobody wants it so I have no problem with bundling it all up together when the party is over.

(While getting into a car)

"Hang on a sec, I don't bend that way right now."
"Is that age or dinner talking?"
"Definitely dinner. It will be a couple of hours before I bend that way again."
"Well at least the entire evening won't be a write-off."

So the house is NOT going to be finished before St Patrick's Day. This is pretty consistent with how our renos have been going. ("I love deadlines. I love the whooshing sound they make as they go by.")

So we're currently looking at April 14th as a possible alternative. Would that mess up anybody's plans?

I've been walking around for two days looking at people and going, "Dude! What the shit?!"

Anyway here is the link to the official Graceland Chapel photos. It's flash-heavy so it may give you problems if you are using iPhone or some other browser that chokes on flash.

If anybody else has pics of the weekend uploaded can you link to them here? I'd love to collect them all.

[ETA] I just watched the pics as a slideshow and it plays Ride of the Valkyries. That's the most hilarious thing ever.

HAVING A BLAST.

WISH YOU WERE HERE.




(Unless you are here in which case, "YAY!")

In response to my last post dali_muse brought up a question about Convergence. Which made me finally admit to myself that I'm not going to be able to go this year.

I was putting off making that call in the hopes I could still squeeze the funds out of somewhere. But I had budgeted a certain amount of money for that trip and as of today Lola's vet bills have now hit a total twice what I had hoped to put aside. Something had to go. And as my other big optional expenses for the year are a) already paid for and b) non-refundable... Convergence is it.

So I'll be seeing you lot in Utah.

Home from NC. the_tsm safely married off, with much alcohol consumed in the process.

I have work to do, but I don't wanna'.

I think I'm dying.
