31-01-2011, mid-afternoon in London Stopping over in Heathrow at the moment. I overestimated the time it would take to go through immigration / customs and get back in through security. Luckily LHR is a fairly mellow place to wait. I had never flown Virgin before, and it was slightly surreal. I’ve grown so accustomed to . . . → Read More: Heathrow Musings
Tea Elf at large. Our little family is growing again! And by family I mean the elves that live in this sever. We’ve been joined by the lovely and talented Cameron McClure. A Portland native living in New York, she’s whip smart and a talented tanguera. I can’t wait to see what she’ll be . . . → Read More: Welcome Tea Elf I’m sorry to tell you this, but you aren’t working hard enough. And by you, I mean me. This is a post to motivate myself to work harder, at everything, thinly disguised as a didactic an entertaining post about, what else, circus. I could have picked any subject, but this one suits me. OK. . . . → Read More: Entertainment & motivation. I had thought the country stopped using the color code for our terror levels, but apparently I was mistaken. I’m spending the night in Denver and we’re at the orange level. I realize these are trite comparisons, but there is no danger level on my car when I open the door. The likelihood of me . . . → Read More: Level Orange 2011/01/24 A week from today, I’ll be in St. Andrews. Well, exactly 168 hours from now I’ll be there.

So I’m not sure what troubles I just made for myself. Please let me know if you see something going wrong. This is going to be a tale of adventure. Or it would be, had I been ambushed by ninjas, waylaid by pirates, or abducted by aliens. But it will be an account of the holidays. I feel like that’s the thing to do. I had posted, and have since removed, a long thingum about . . . → Read More: goodbye 2010 I’m totally excited about this. It’s the start of the new year and this blog just got way better. That’s because it’s no longer just my blog, where I alone write out random and detached filaments of memory or fact, it’s now got twice as many authors (for a total of two) to bring you . . . → Read More: Welcome Andrew Ok, long first title. +3 to geek if you recognize the quote, +7 if you can say it in Quenya, +15 if you can write it in Tengwar script. So, yes, I’ve been thinking a lot about conlangs theses days: Esperanto, Interlingua, Ido, Lojban, awesome. Then Tolkien comes along and boom, Sindarin, Quenya, Avarin, Khuzdul, . . . → Read More: a star shines on the hour of our meeting I spent all day working on the nuts and bolts of the blog. Making it do things you mostly won’t notice anyway. But bear with me, I have more to do tomorrow. Thus the existence of many posts with no content (unless you log in).
