amethyst73So, Huz has been in Edinburgh since Monday. He's tired (not getting enough sleep, surprise surprise), but his presentation earlier today (Friday, Edinburgh time) was well received. The Best Western he's staying at, contrary to advertisements, does not have in-room Ethernet, and their lobby wireless has been broken all week long. So much of the (very limited) chatting I've done with him has been while he's using the hotel Windows box, which is old, slow, and wanted by other guests. Plus there's the 8-hour difference thing. It seems I can often count on 'seeing' him sometime in the morning (my time), as he either takes momentary advantage of the wireless at the conference site or stops in at the hotel between conference and dinner stuff. No Skype (or even voice) chatting since Monday night, when he was stuck in Newark, which has been a bit sad.
But I've been keeping myself very busy! Work, for one thing, seems to be going at an accelerated pace - maybe that's just me after getting back from Boston, but then again maybe not. And nezumiko has been awesome, letting me come hang with her choir Tuesday night, helping her clean (and purchase new) rat cages Wednesday, and playing with her D&D group last night. Tonight I am dining with Huz's parents. Dinner was meant to be at 7, but there are other guests coming, and they didn't leave San Francisco till, oh, 6:45. We're guessing they'll be here around 7:30 - I hope!
I have not spent as much time with the kitties as they would like. I will hopefully fix that at least somewhat tomorrow. Seeing an old friend for lunch plus hangout, and then I really need to do housework, as there are piles of stuff everywhere. It's even more difficult to be virtuous and pick up after oneself when there's not another human in the house being affected by the piles of mess.
Oh. And it hurts to swallow. :(
Happy July 4th, to those who celebrate it!
