I made a fanmix! Oh, yes I did! It's for The Secret Country trilogy by Pamela Dean.  

omg, someone has met my mom, and they made a comic thingy about it. 

And Laurell  K Hamilton put forth the first chapter of A Lick of Frost. ... The book is due out in October. I think I'll be decidedly not reading it.

Sorry I've been a bit AWOL. D is sick- in the hospital. The boy is never sick, but leave it to him to get something major the one time he is ill. They had to take his appendix out. So I'm trying to keep time to call and check in on him. 

Then of course this weekend is the 2nd largest tournament of the summer at our club ,and I was working it plus attending for Tom (my step-bro) and step-dad. They did pretty well on Saturday but today... it wasn't pretty. But last night was the Calcutta which I went to. Of course I had far too much rum, and a bit more tequila than is healthy. Got to bed around 4 am. 

In other news, I'm making plans for my super seekrit Vegas weekend with D. Which S and T may or may not be going on with me. I'd love for them to come, but... S's husband is an ass, and goddess only knows how her going will work out. And she doesn't stand up to him- she always backs down from him at the last second. So I figure I'll just book my ticket, or maybe wait a little while to see if T wants to go for sure. 

And the super seekrit Vegas weekend is only secret from my stepfather, who would flip right the hell out should he know. So he won't. See how this works? ... I know. It's goign to implode one way or another. Like right when mom forgets and says something about it. Hopefully that'll happen after I'm already gone.

You know you want to see this fanmix... 

I think that fits today fairly well. Went to NW. Got housing straightened out I think, but I'll have to wait until I get that envelope with my room assignment to know for sure. Got a schedule, but I'm not too happy with it. EVERY frelling class was closed. Argh to the infinite. People better drop over the summer. I'll have to just keep checking back every week.

And whoever invented CATPaws was a VOGON. I'm telling you, the Vogons are real and they are making computer programs and that... thing is proof. I had forgotten how much I loathed that system, but now I remember.

Country club drama ensued today as well. Some of the members got in a fight at the tournament, and the two who were technically in the wrong of course got exempted. Not only that but they also are getting paid I guess their entry fees for the tournament? Dunno, I know that they must have lost quite a bit b/c they got pissy and dropped out, therefore losing the cash they'd put into the Calcutta... Anyway, the one who pointed out that the others had more than 14 clubs (thereby giving them something like 8 penalty strokes) got kicked out of the club for "language". Heh, considering the things I've heard yelled on that course during tournaments, it must have been a hellishly ugly fight. Or they just didn't want him anymore. Gotta love the sophomoric yuppy dramas.

Anyway, where was I? Oh yeah, college... college, the final frontier. I'm so never going to be done with college. I'm just going to keep going and going and going and it's never going to end... *hides under the desk*

I think I'm going to go reread The Whim of the Dragon for the 28478339274576766th time. The Secret Country is marijuana like Harry Potter is crack. Gaiman is LSD. Merry Gentry is... meth? Strange Fate is the elusive ultimate high that is never gonna happen.

And on that trippy note...

I'm going to go read and go to sleep.
