My happy news: I am home at last, in my own house, with my own feline companion, sitting at my own laptop.

Seven weeks, as opposed to the two I thought I would be gone...sh*t happens, especially to me. Lately. Still tethered to a Wound-Vac, but only for two more weeks.

Glad you're home. Take care so we won't miss you again.

That's very happy news!

Cool. Thought you were gone for a bit longer than you said, but my memory isn't the best.

[Linda]

Evcake, welcome home! There is nothing like being home to make you feel better, eh?

[Elessar]

I did my bi-montly 6 hours of work on the site and I'm done! yay!

I'm exaggerating (only a little) when I say "bi-monthly", but it seems like during school I was hardly able to get around to doing things like adding new sections, putting up new banners, etc.

I have no idea how you stay on top of it all.


Thanks though!

Thanks though!

You'll find out when you meet me that I actually have six arms

[enterprikayak]

You know, that sounds about right.

I wasn't sure where to put this report. I was very tempted to put it in the Convention Thread. Becasuse I'm at a convention!!!! The Texas Star Party. I'm having a blast. I arrived Monday night and had to parK the car outside the ranch and walk in There are 500 people here! They were all set up on the observing field and I went wandering in the dark looking for my group of 7 other Pittsburghers! and after an hour I FOUND THEM. The skies are increadible! It looks like a huge edge-on galaxy streches overhead from horizon to horizon. And it's OUR GALAXY. There is a picture of it I will post when I get back. There is no way to describe it. I saw Omega Centari, which I was all hyped up about, but also Centarus A galaxy which looks like two galaxies that ran into each other. This is even better. There is a huge glowing blob of stars with a think stripe through the center.

I just got back from a lecture about the science being done at Mt. Wilson Observatory. OH I TOOK A TOUR of MCDONALD OBSERVATORY, which is just up the road. I am in heaven!

We stay up all night and sleep in till 11:00. Sound like a con?

OK, I will send before I loose my connection. I am out in the middle of nowhere!

Miss you guys. Wish you were here!

What is a think stripe?

Glad to hear you're having such a wonderful time. Your enthusiasm is just bubbling over!
