So, instead of doing the smart thing and going home when they told us we were free at 2pm to get ready for the Top Hat Ball tonight, I decide I want to do a major update on my site.

This year, it hasn’t been as slow at work as it has been in the past so I haven’t been able to get personal stuff done. Why else would I work during the holiday season?

For your viewing pleasure: The following events have been added to my Gina Space page.
Underworld
Pit O’Scorpions
Thanksgiving
Dec DHP
Medieval Manor Feast
Dicken’s
Gaskell’s
BGI Holiday party
Peter Pan outing

LosCon is still just a directory because there are so many pictures and so little time.

Either 2003 has been a very busy year, or I just had a camera for more of it than in the past. I wonder what 2004 will bring.

I feel like I have reached a turning point. Passed a corner. Life isn’t all that different, but I feel different about it.

me getting philosophical and marking this place in my life

The Emerybay 10 has a special deal for the movie Peter Pan. If you dress up in costume and buy a ticket between Dec 25 and Dec 28, you will get a ticket for a future movie. There are so many ways they could screw up the offer that we don’t really care what the freebee is. The fun bit is they are setting up a formal Costume Opportunity. And there are so many fun things you can wear for Peter Pan. A Pirate, a Lost Boy, your pajamas, victorian parents. Crystal and I are thinking of something like the 3pm showing on Sat. Maybe I will wear my Green Fairy outfit with the 4″ gold goddess sandals and be a full sized Tinkerbell. People are welcome to join us. If you let us know, we will keep an eye out for you.

Grass a brilliant green. Hills swathed in fog. Trees clinging to their green leaves. Air full of rain. Everything glistening. Nary a breeze. The patter of the rain on my hat. Cars driving by on wet pavement. The stillness, the freshness.

These are the type of days that feed my soul.

There is a meme running around where people on your friends list tell you something about themselves. I have been answering quite a few and feel I need to come up with something new that people don’t know about me each time. This last one on corva‘s journal has a story attached to it. One of the reasons I started on LJ was to share my stock of stories with more people so here is one.

How my Pony turned into a TV

I am behind on my events posts, that happen in this season. I want to post about by company party. I didn’t get to yesterday so I am being a putz and doing it today instead of the work I should be doing.
long story type of thingy. Click through if you have the time

Looking out my office window in the Financial District Downtown SF, it looks like it is snowing. It is probably rain but it is coming down so lightly that is practically floating. The sun is shining through it. It was such a downpour earlier that the roof across the street was a lake until it let up enough that the drainage could catch up. Today has been a day of running to the window and checking out the weather.

In the time it has taken me to write this, it has cleared up and back to sunny and cool.
