Grumpy. Attempting to fill myself full of tea (Russian Caravan, a black tea. yummy). I managed to remember my CD binder for work this morning, but somehow forgot the book I was planning on bringing to chemotherapy. ARGH. And their magazines they have out for the patients and suchlike suck.
Last night, the Engineer and I took Carrie to my old hood of Philadelphia. Most specifically, we took her to MY bar. Tattooed Mom's. Thee Pumpkin Girl and The Unibomber V 2.0 were in attendence, as well as a surprise visit from Karl Christian (Angst Boy comics) and Brett (who smiles a lot and is keen).
TPG and I were doing the gifty thing, which involved much squeeing at each other. I got her the winged lion from The Island of Misfit Toys and she gave unto me a pair of tiny black velvet gloves (which fit my wee little paws perfectly), as well as the purple bat and cat box I have been squiggly over since I first clapped eyes upon it back in August.
TPG makes my heart go pitter pitter!

Date: 2002-12-27 11:42 am (UTC)When?
I used to work directly across the street, at Tower Books. Three years, spanning 1997-2000.
Holy weirdness. I knew a couple of people who worked there, too.

Date: 2002-12-27 11:02 am (UTC)wondering about his name
king moonracer (so keen!)
is it because he's a lion
and therefore the sun?
is that why he races the moon?

there when i'm with them.
a whole other world.
