a whole lot of nothing going on

Well, since I got back from the Not-Balticon Excursion, there really hasn't been a lot going on. I put on a lot of weight while I was out there and have been struggling to get it off, and over the last week or so I've been making good progress on that. I may even be under 390 by the time the convention rolls around next month. BP and BG have mostly been good. 

Speaking of which, we've had a trickle of memberships come in, a couple of T-shirt orders, some ideas for programming, and as usual no response from DoE or various nuclear industry folks. We'll just have to do without them, I guess. 

Speaking of doing without things, it is with great displeasure that I discovered the Pahrump Valley Times had closed their Tonopah office and with it the only copy shop for a couple hundred miles. Good thing I'm going to Las Vegas this week for an NSSAB meeting, because not only do I need to mail out con flyers to Jolie at Libertycon but my zine for StippleAPA to Jeanne. Well, I should have plenty of time before the meeting on Wednesday and on my way out of town Thursday to attend to those matters. 

I've been Ingressing a little but mostly just recharging things from the recliner; been doing my dailies and picking away at the current FGO event, and attempting to win a Planet of the Mongols setup in Civ5. Also continuing to reread Behold! Humanity! while also slogging through Mimi & Toutou Go Forth as well as the Fate: Kaleid Liner Prisma Illya manga omnibus. The former may convince me to give Conrad's Heart of Darkness another go. 

[personal profile] troika called me this morning for Father's Day and we hung out on the phone for about an hour talking about stuff. It was good.
