What a bastard.
But it’s sort of my fault too, I suppose. I didn’t give him the loving backup he deserved. I just assumed a Server God was …

Can you guess who we are?

The cast from Fantastic Mr. Fox!
I love that movie. Although, not as much as my roommate (Mrs. Fox), whose obsession created a cyclone of costume crazy; convincing me, and everyone one else I know, to join her in the creation of a perfect Wes Anderson moment.
And it was pretty perfect.
I really liked being Kristofferson, and despite a sudden lack of tolerance for alcohol and a very embarrassing moment (or two), I had fun.

I’ll say it again. I love Elliot Bay Book Company. They’re right next to Molly Moon’s Ice Cream, the store is packed full of amazing books, lovely interior design, and authors.
Last night I saw, Priscilla Long. She did a reading of The Writer’s Portable Mentor. I liked it, but I didn’t realize it was a locally published book. It was like an award ceremony, combined with a book reading. Don’t worry, I’ve cut out the 13 + minutes of “thank-yous” …

John Scalzi and Wil Wheaton have teamed up to raise money for the Lupus Alliance of America.
Basically, you write a short story about this awesome picture, and turn it in by the end of June. The winner gets paid 10 cents a word, a sack of free books, and the warm fuzzy feeling that comes with doing something for charity.
If you lose I suppose you only get the warm fuzzy feeling.
Either way it’s hilarious.
Looks I found next weeks Writing Brothers’ …

w00tstock is coming to Seattle on May 7th!!
I didn’t bother to check when Wil Wheaton announced it on his blog, but thanks to my friend at STG I won’t miss it *dances*
Wil Wheaton, Adam Savage, Paul and Storm, plus tons of other nerdy speakers and short films, blow out your geek fuses for about 3 solid hours.
It’s a nerd festival, and I can’t wait!
