The weekend in VA was awesome though, we had a lot of fun with our friends and their kids. Now we're home, and two days of booktalks later I'm finally back in my office and setting into some kind of normalcy again. More later, perhaps.

- Include this explanation in the post and offer to ask other people questions.
Questions from
tanyad :1. What powers would you have as a character on MLP:Friendship is Magic?
Like, what would my cutie mark be? Either something with books and libraries or something yarn based. Possibly Rarity outsources some of her special order knitted fabrics to me, IDK.
2. What's your favorite kind of yarn and why?
Ok, to wear would be this yummy cashmere/mink blend that
akirachan made me a hat with ages ago. To knit, probably Creatively Dyed cashmere/merino blend, fingering weight. 3. Are you coming to ChiCon next year? (hopes that you are!)
Is that Worldcon? That's in Chicago next year, right? If we're thinking about the same thing the plan is to come, yes.
lynxreign 's mom is in Chicago, plus you and thewayoftheid and hopefully karnythia again by that point, and other people I'm not even remembering right now, so Chicago has a lot going for it. Plus I've never actually been to Chicago, and I want to see it. 4. What would you do with a million dollars, tax free?
First, buy a house. This is Boston area, so that may take all of it, IDK. If there's enough after that it goes to buying houses in the same neighborhood for our friends and taking over as much of the area as possible for general nerdery. Anything leftover would go to setting up my fiber studio.
5. What's your favorite spot in the library?
Probably my office? Haha, I don't really get to just hang out here much, so it's hard to say. Train table is pretty cool, the roof is neat but I don't get up there much, the YA space is pretty great now but again, I can't really just go sit over there.

1. The Ninth will always be my favorite, though I do love the Tenth. I'm still not convinced that the Eleventh is even really a Doctor.
2. This is hard one to choose. I think almost everything that annoys me about him stems from his inability to muster any self-discipline or motivation. Kid just needs to grow up.
3. I can't think of a thing that makes me laugh. It's sad.
4. My ideal job would involve being as nearly like Batman as possible. I may or may not need to say, "I am vengeance. I am the night," for it to be perfectly ideal.

3. We met at university; he was a roommate (ward? idek) of the college chaplain.
