I've been writing online for thirty years. One of these days I might actually get good at it.

    Falling behind

    I'm getting to the point where just keeping up is beyond my dwindling capacities. I'm not sure what's going on, but I suspect I'm not going to like it when I find out.

    Anyway, I apologize for having been such a lousy correspondent this year.

    Having gone wandering off somewhere

    Of late, I seem to have been overtaken by events: my health has taken a turn for the worst, I wrecked my car, and the guy they hired to help me out at work has moved away. (Another guy has drawn the short straw.) I'm still alive, but it's not something I much feel like bragging about.

    A night at the beer garden

    I mean, I'm not allowed beer anymore, at least not until I get off some of these damnable medications, but our little table had massive fun discussing Jenga, photography, classic and modern weaponry, beer (of course) -- and ponies. Apparently they'd read my stuff. Who knew?

    Regular visitors will remember that I'd asked the estimable LeekFish to knock out a sketch for my, um, OC. I posted it here, and it was well received; our own Twifight Sparkill came up with an idea, and heck, there's no reason you shouldn't see it here, especially since she's revised it to give me a more, um, scholarly look. (The LeekFish original is still in the sidebar at

    Back in the Real World

    I think I would rather spend two weeks in the Everfree, trying to avoid everything that can kill me, and in the Everfree I assume everything can kill me, than one more minute in a hospital room.

    That said, their definition of "on the mend" doesn't quite coincide with mine.

In for a pound · 12:12am Sep 25th, 2014

Actually, several pounds, based on the current exchange rate.

I have reserved a seat for the one and only showing (in this gedunk town of, um, 1.3 million) of Rainbow Rocks. The dollar off I get for being Incredibly Old exactly balances the convenience fee for ordering online.

Of course, what I really want to know is whether they'll bring Flash Sentry back.

Update, after the show: Maybe a hair too much fanservice, but on the whole, a decided improvement over the first EqG film, and ample justification for continuing the series. Empty seats were conspicuous by their absence. I really don't think Harkins expected this thing to sell out.

I'm debating whether I'm going to buy my ticket at the door, or whether I'm going to reserve it online still.

A lot depends on your local movie house. We get one showing, period. (Across the state in a college town, they get seven.)

I have yet to see the show, but being a weird fan of Sunset Shimmer, I have it on good authority I should be very pleased.

We'll see, of course.

Of all the characters on hand, Sunset Shimmer arguably comes off the best.
