N things make a post

• Sigh, cannot make it to Wiscon after all ;_;. I originally thought I could after getting a refund for taxes, but I just got an invitation to a family friend's wedding on the East Coast. So... there goes that. I am especially sad because I really want to go and support the increased number of anime/manga panels! (And by support, I really mean ramble on about Princess Tutu and Utena...)


• In other news, California seems to be trying to cram three months worth of winter into April. It has been pouring for the past few weeks, and yesterday brought on a lot of thunder and lightning as well. And! I am almost done assembling all the furniture and whatnot for my kitchen, which means I can soon start doing things like stocking up on the fridge and pantry again.


• I have started to read again! This is a relief! Now let's see if I can manage to write something up...


• Also, I caved and am now on Twitter as ActuallyOyceter. Right now it's mostly Echo Bazaar stuff. I think I'm also oyceter on Tumblr but I don't post and I haven't checked Tumblr for a year.

Woe! I was looking fwd to yr manga thoughts. Hope yr family will treasure you.

I believe that California has made off with winter we've been missing for two months. This week has had the first freeze since January! We have lilacs blooming, which often occurs with Wiscon.

I know, I am sad! I guess the universe has decreed that 2012 will be the Year of Weddings for me or something...

I feel the same way re: California! We were having the weirdest cold spells here while everyone in New York was posting about 70+ F weather. What the heck, state, what the heck?

we will miss you at wiscon! i shall sadly take you off program items.

[oyceter]

Thanks! I am guessing I will not have to email programming?

[annaoj]

Yep--I'm on the programming committee.

[oyceter]

Thank you!

Nnnnnnoooooooooeeeesssss.

[oyceter]

I know, I was really looking forward to it too!

[torachan]

Yeah, it hardly rained at all (at least in SoCal) in the past few months, but now it's been raining all over the place.

[oyceter]

IKR? It's like California decided to push winter from Dec.-Jan. all into March and April.

[kate_nepveu]

Followed you on Twitter with EB account!

[oyceter]

Yay!

[yasaman]

Thunder and lightning and hail in Santa Monica today, which is not April weather at all! And it was so warm and pleasant last weekend too! This is February weather we're having right now, it's weird.

[oyceter]

I know right?? And it keeps fluctuating between dead of winter and "Oh hai summer!"

[starlady]

Ah, so it was your spot they just offered me on the fairytale panel. I'm sorry you won"t be there!

[oyceter]

Hee, probably! I am glad you will be on it though!

[phi]

*sadface* I will miss you! But! I will be in the bay area around july 4th for a wedding (hah! I first typed that as 'weeding'). We should get together then!

[oyceter]

Ooo yes, let me know when you are in town!!

[heavenscalyx]

*SAD* I was thinking of you when I proposed the Utena panel and was so thrilled when it came through.

[oyceter]

SADFACE!! Really really looking forward to reports of that panel though!

[oracne]

Woe.

East Coast anywhere near me? Though I guess weddings don't give one time off, really.

[oyceter]

I don't think so? (Boston-ish... my knowledge of East Coast geography is embarrassingly bad.)

[oracne]

Way too far north, alas. But Boston is cool.
