Thirteen Random Things Because I’m Stressed and Still Brain Mushed
1. I meant to be able to visit with a lot more people at RT and did not! I’m disappointed about that.
2. But I’m overjoyed to have had our little RT posse - Megan, Amelia and Laura.
3. I need to go dancing more often.
4. I started writing GWAB again last night and this thrills me.
5. It also scares me.
6. I get to see Anya in a month!
7. I have the best husband ever.
8. I have A LOT of work to do
9. Suddenly I’m so busy it’s disconcerting but wonderful all at once
10. I hate waiting
11. I’m still fighting off the cold that threatened before I left for RT. It’s back and has settled into my throat and appears to want to timeshare there. I have too much to do this weekend so my husband is plying me with vitamins
12. I brought back three dozen books from RT and I don’t have time to read any of them
13. Tater tots are still as good as they were when I was a kid. Ding dongs are not.

You’ve been very busy the past few weeks! Glad you had such a wonderul time at RT. It sounds fun, but hectic. You’ll have to go again next year to do all the things you missed this year. *g*

by Melissa May 3rd, 2007 at 9:53 amVery disappointing about Ding Dongs. I will savor my memories.
YES for Goddess With A Blade!
by Charlene May 3rd, 2007 at 9:59 amI lurve tator tots. I’m sorry you didn’t get to meet everyone you wanted to, but if you go to RT next year, you’ll have another opportunity.
I was planning on going, but after the RT fiasco with Laura Baumbach, I’m not sure I will.
And speaking of Ding Dongs, it’s been years and years since I’ve eaten on of those. LOL
by Bonnie Rose Leigh May 3rd, 2007 at 10:02 amI couldn’t find a Ding Dong here to test that theory. We have different snack cakes; most of them have both jam and cream inside.
by Ann(ie) May 3rd, 2007 at 10:43 amYou are sick too? *hugs* (I’m not, but you know Megan is, I’m sure)
by May May 3rd, 2007 at 11:08 amYou? Hate waiting? Say it isn’t so!
by Angela James May 3rd, 2007 at 11:25 amif i go to RT next year you BETTER make time to hang with me wench! Give Anya a big wet sloppy kiss from me when you see her.
by rhian May 3rd, 2007 at 11:55 amOh Angie, I so needed that laugh today!
Yep May, me too although I didn’t break anything from coughing like Megan did!
Rhian - of course. I absolutely require you to be part of our RT posse.
BRL - I wanted to chat with Gennita Low and Jordan Summers a lot longer but that did not happen - I’m pouty about it but yes, there’s always next year.
Mel - I’m so thrilled! I can’t wait to meet you.
Charli - yes, I picked it up last night after not looking at it for six months but it held up which made me relieved.
NJ - no kiddin! But busy is good, I’m busy for good reasons, it’s just sort of nerve wracking.
Annie - even when they’re frozen they aren’t as good as I remember. I think it must be that when I was young we rarely bought that kind of stuff so it all had special status in my head.
by Lauren May 3rd, 2007 at 12:09 pmUm…what’s a tater tot? Don’t know what a ding dong is either but apparently I’m not missing out
I hope you get rid of that cold. And good husbands are just the best.

by -- a metamorphoself of gabrielle May 3rd, 2007 at 1:36 pmI’m such a hopeless foodie. Here you have this nice list of things, Lauren, and all I can focus on are the tater tots and ding dongs. I haven’t had either in at least a decade. Now I’m going to have to remedy that so I can make my own taste test.
Too bad you couldn’t have met more people at RT but it sounds like you had a great time anyway. There’s always next year!
