(Yes, I realize I didn’t finish my posts about Wondercon. I do have notes for my activities, and will try to write that up in the near future.)
In the meantime, while I’m in the process of preparing for a major change in my life, the Creature continues to check out how things are going.
Here, he and Snoozy the Dragon make a last check of the TV stand I’ve had since my days in graduate school at the University of Texas. This particle board-plastic laminated stand has really put in long service, and I’m surprised it hasn’t cracked before now. But its days are over and it is time to say good bye. I think I got my money’s worth out of that purchase.
I’ve also boxed up the books that are usually on the hutch of my desk. The fate of the desk is still undetermined, since it is not an easy shape to move about. But that matter aside, the books needed to be packed and identified. It does leave the shelf looking a bit like a ghost-town.
The Creature’s friends are all in hibernation already, so he was feeling a little mournful about it all. I tell him it’s all an adventure, but he just looks at me with those eyes until I admit that I find it unsettling too. But I do feel good things will come of this change.
