Got home about 10:00 p.m. last night after a long and mostly pleasant driving day. I will report on the rest of ConTata later, but short form: amazingly fun. Great time, new friends, much love for older friends, really good steak. More detail later. Today, I have to go to the store, do laundry, and -- oh yeah -- sleep. A lot.

How's your week starting out?

That was great! Glad you got home safely, and that you tried the steak; I wasn't kidding about Ruth's Chris being good!

As to us...I need to do a post, but the neighbors had a fire over the weekend that resulted in our losing (due to firemen) our door (mostly; the lock was broken and the door was warped, but it's padlocked for now and as of earlier today drcpunk even has a key to said padlock), a window, power to several outlets, and the ceiling of the kitchen. So we're not able to stay at home until this stuff is repaired. OTOH, we've got a gaming con coming up this weekend starting on Wednesday night, so our inconvenience should be minimal if, as expected, they fix things up by, say, next monday. (and we do have insurance).

Eek! Glad you're safe! I hope things get fixed up quickly for you. I had a lovely time at the con. Thank you for everything!

Thanks! Mind, the fire itself happened on Saturday! Lisa and I got our panicking out early and went back into attending/working the con. So we were never in danger, and finding that the fire hadn't actually reached our place and none of our stuff was damaged was a relief.

And thank you for everything; having you and Tom worked out exactly as well as we'd hoped--and Douglas and Juliana were a -very- nice bonus!

AIEE! Good frickin' FSM. Glad you're all okay, and I hope you have the timeline right.

And, again, so many thanks to you and Merav and John and everybody else. It was a great weekend, m'friend, and I only hope I lived up to your expectations.

(And, I knew Ruth's Chris was good -- I just had never really had it in my adult life. [The one time I did was for my birthday with my mom, many years ago, too long ago to remember and too inexperienced to appreciate.] And it was, indeed, gooooood.)

[Hmm. FSM = what? Oh, right, the monster!]

I hope so too; I'm very glad we were at the con rather than at home when this happened, even if it means our door got broken.

And you -totally- lived up to our expectations -- it was a blast! [btw; Jon, not John; a pretty minor point, I admit].

I went out to Ruth's Chris twice myself (ok, not by myself; with Lisa, and the first time also with Christine and eventually Aaron) and it was lovely -- but somehow, between needing/wanting to get places [Saturday we were late for the RHMS rehersal; Sunday I just wanted to get to the Rotten Apple as we'd started dinner late] and distraction I managed to leave stuff behind both times! However, both times it was trivial to retrieve what had been lost!
