@alexheberling, my fellow podcast/tropecast co-host, webcomicker, and occasional (like once a year) drinking companion stands tipsy yet victorious in front of the skeeball machine we conquered at this year’s Penguicon.

For the full story (or as much of it as we can remember, anyway) tune in to this morning’s Tropecast at noon EST on The Webcomic Beacon.

Reason #57839 to go to Penguicon: arduino skee-ball and the Cupcake Dress.

I’M SO EXCITED FOR THE GEEK PROM THIS YEAR YOU HAVE NO IDEA.

Also I have no memory of this picture being taken.  Thanks, Barfleet!

As I was writing these labels, I stopped only briefly to scratch an itch on my forehead.

Spent today designing and printing out pony keychains and buttons for the convention I’m going to next weekend.  Luckily, I got all the buttons cut out, which is rather tedious, and using the big paper punch can be rough on the hands.

I got all the keychains cut out, too… only to find that I’d made them at the wrong size and resolution. >_<  I hope people buy them, because I spent a lot of time redoing the printer files.

Have the house to myself this evening, so I’m trying to de-stress while I sip tea and watch Kitchen Nightmares.

The joys of working third shift: nightcaps at 9 AM.  (That’s hot chocolate with amaretto, fyi.)
