Not a whole lot going on this week, and it’s really quite nice. With our Heroes on hiatus that has left us free to watch other good stuff like The Dresden Files (which, though technically set in Chicago, is actually shot in Toronto. Not quite as bad as Vancouver, which “looks like Boston, California”), and accumulated low-priority animation shows like The Simpsons and Family Guy. Tonight I think we’re going to check out the second episode of BBC America’s Robin Hood and the premiere of FX’s The Riches, which got rave reviews (and the idea of Eddie Izzard maintaining a strict American accent amuses me to no end).
Thanks to everyone who responded to yesterday’s call for help at AC. I’ll be in touch with you soon, trust me. We also need to have a little sit-down with roho to discuss the feasibility of point-of-sale software for Artists Alley; this is probably something for implementation in future years. Something like that could really streamline payout, but as has been noted in the past, what is it worth to knock twenty minutes off a 45-minute process that we do three times each year?
Yesterday’s weather was fabulous, just with the high just a hair over 70 and breezy. I opened up all the windows and aired the place out (and discovered a missing screen on one of the windows in the master bedroom). Relaxing in the living room with the breeze blowing was just lovely. Of course, because it’s Illinois in March, the weather today has taken a turn for the icky, with the temperature crashing down into the 30’s by tonight and a chance of rain and snow.
Finally, in case anyone missed it, the fursuit photos that nymphara took at Midwest FurFest are now available online. If you want a high-quality copy of any of the pcitures, just drop takaza a line.
Dresden rocks:
Hey, how can you not like a guy who has a hockey stick for a wizard’s staff.
I’d recommend the BBC’s Robin Hood. I should look around to see whether I have that station here/when it’s on.
As for AC, I’ll volunteer again. I just prefer to do so on site, assuming I get to go this year :p. It’s hard for me to make plans that far ahead and such.
Well, if you’ll know you’re going as close as a month before, I think I could still fit you in as staff. Otherwise, your best option would be to stop by Operations and have Giza and company set you up with a volunteer sheet.
Staff? Woah woah, at least offer to buy dinner first.
…I’ll think about it XD, makes for a good laugh at least :).
