I'm not sure Brian and I will be at Xmortis tonight. He's fighting a cold and didn't get a lot of sleep last night - I woke up to find that he transferred himself to the reclining couch in the den so that his head would be more upright.

Next week will be busy since we're getting ready for the recital. Both jackets I'm wearing for costumes are very ill-fitting, so I'm going to play a bit with pinning them and see how they come out. I wonder if our ballet costumes came in yet? They had supposedly shipped, but as of Tuesday the teacher still hadn't received them. I can't remember exactly what they looked like, but I want to say they were a purpleish-blue velvet - ooh! This year perhaps I'll actually get some pictures - the last show pictures I have are from grade school or high school. And soon, I want to plop myself down in front of the scanner and load a ton of my old pics online somewhere. I have a ton I'd love to share. :)

Vegas

Its a date! We're sharing a place with Amavia and Lurfmonkey. They booked http://www.dailymanagementresorts.com/Resort.aspx?resort=4 which seemed to have good reviews (and they can take advantage of their time share pricing). We'll be there for a week - the first in October. Whee! :)

Amavia has been saying over the last few years that we should do one of these trips some fall. I imagine we'll split off sometimes (they've done the Vegas thing often and won't want to see the super touristy stuff) but I'd love to go exploring outside of the city with them too.

Its really too bad that Dick Cheese won't be there when we are!
