Is it time for eye candy yet?

Tick, tock, the summer is rushing to a close. Warm here again today, but it's not going to last. Braved the shopping mall where the fall clothes were on sale. I understand a sale for back to school clothes in August, but when it is 90 degrees out, I have a hard time getting psyched to buy wool or quilted jackets. I was there shopping for my new niece, and even here I ran into difficulties. The baby clothes on the racks were long-sleeve fleece and multi-layered garments, ready for the chill of autumn and winter, while I'm trying to shop for Florida. Still a little perseverance found the summer sales racks, and I was able to suitably spoil her.

Writing: 1,084 words today. Good words, if not as many as I'd have liked. Starting a novel is a lot like trying to push start a car. It takes a while to get any momentum going.

Reading: Finished Cast in Shadow and started Tanith Lee's Metallic Love. Going to be interesting to see how this holds up against the teenage classic The Silver Metal Lover

Watching: Picked up the Constantine DVD for tonight. Kick back, a little wine, a little chocolate....

Re: hello do you do Cons?

Another Bray heard from. It's funny, but when I was growing up there were very few Brays in Connecticut, and even when I moved to Upstate New York, the name was so uncommon that when my name showed up in the local phone book, the other Bray in the area called me up to compare genealogy notes. Now there are a half-dozen of us in the local phone book, and I've met quite a few Brays in my travels.

I've sent you an email, so you can fill me in on MidSouthCon. I try to get to a few cons a year, mostly ones within driving distance that I can work in to my schedule. This year is a little light on SF cons because family obligations took precedence-- two out of state weddings and a new niece in Florida.
