Pennsic diary is written

The final word count is about 12,200. Yeah, I write a lot.

Now I've got to code it and figure out what parts need to be abridged (because some things that happen at Pennsic, stay at Pennsic). I should have it online within a day or two.

Until then, welcome home everyone who's home. I hope your drives were absolutely boring and uneventful.

The Universe speaks

Today, the Universe spoke. This is what it said: "Julie, you've been driving too much lately. You drove a thousand km back from Pennsic. Then, once you got into town, you drove another 200 km, not to mention the time you spent sitting in your car waiting for people. You have obviously driven too much lately, and you are planning to do more. This is intolerable. So I shall do what you have not: I shall make you stop driving."

Yes, today my car started leaking fluid. I can no longer drive.

Sometimes, the Universe whispers. Sometimes, it speaks. Today, it hit me over the head with a hammer.
