Pictures of Oklahoma City

Still road tripping back to San Antonio, where I’ll wait out the rest of my temporary homelessness before I can move into my new place in Austin. I spent yesterday in Oklahoma City, which, when the Spurs aren’t playing the Thunder, turns out to be a lovely town. Here are some pictures.

Travel Update

After spending the Fourth of July with friends in lovely Madison, I had originally planned to head back to Iowa City today.

…yeah. I’m going to spend an extra day in Wisconsin. I just hope, as the radar over Iowa has looked like this or worse for a significant part of the last week, that my house hasn’t moved downstream from where I saw it last.

Traveling, so no Thermo Thursday

There will be no Thermo Thursday this week because I’m in Washington, D.C. doing writing research. I got to be here for the last day of the government shutdown, and am now exploring how the city has changed since it reopened. Here’s a picture of DuPont Circle. Thermo Thursday returns next week.

Back From California

CaliSunset

And it was quite nice there.  I went to my first World Fantasy convention, got to spend time with many friends, old and new, and see some very beautiful things.  It was a long trip, and I was more invested in living in the moment than noting down what I was doing, so I don’t even know if I can even retrieve from jumbled memory enough information to put together something like a con report.  But I had a fabulous time.  The regular irregular blog service will now resume.

Delay

Storms over New Jersey kept me from getting home last night as originally planned. I should end up getting into San Antonio around 9:00 pm. The story of my (pretty damn awesome) first Worldcon will have to wait until after I’m home, showered, and wearing clean clothes.
