AnyWho Vic your Pics of Houston on Crackbook look Beautiful The beautiful pics of which you speak were taken in Central Park, New York City, I believe. ROTFLMBFAO!!!! That was the laugh of the day. The dentures comment, not the fried brain comment. Just think, it's almost over for you! The freedom part-don't hold your breath on that, though. ^Same here. About the dentures. I'm in tears over that. Oh, Nhat!

Oh, thanks Ravie. I was like, "I went to Houston?" *scratching head*
I'll post my RT schedule when I find my brain. Back soon! (I hope!) We need to do a forum coffee get-together or something. And I need to locate cupcakes.
But first, I need to go get a nail out of my tire. :-(

Okay, here's the majority of my RT schedule - at least the things I'm doing now for sure. FYI, and then we'll compare and contrast ...

URBAN FANTASY: THE BIG PICTURE
THURSDAY: Vampires, witches, shapeshifters, fae, goddesses, mediums, zombies!

Expect the unexpected as you never know what magic may appear in the cool, early hours of the evening. Hosted by: Avon Books scheduled April 30, 2010 from 5:45 PM to 6:45 PM

Looks like Friday/Saturday am could work for a coffee klatch sort of thing ...and/or Wed, Thurs afternoon for cupcakes if I can find a good cupcakery. Let's see a show of hands, who's going, and what else you've got going on.
Getting excited!

The first one sounds very intriguing and useful...too bad the excuses and mind-games aren't about getting stuff actually written, and involve more the publisher/agent/editor side of things...

Trying to stay out of Debi's way when a new batch of ARCs are released. Stalking some author friends. You know....the usual.

Well, they are little shoe prints....I don't run over people, I am very good at dodging around them. We didn't have to do that much at B-Con. However, latest count of people registered at RT this year is 1100. There will be plenty of chances to bob and weave and dodge.

Only 1100? I thought it would be....bigger.
