    Wow, is this the first time you two meet? And what a great timing, too, just in time for Valentine's Day.

    And to think you two met on this forum, right? A writing community bringing writers together all across the globe, how cool is that. :love:

    Yes, it's our first meeting, and we met on here. I'd originally planned to go in March, but these tickets were a good price. Under 400 euro for 4 flights. Ireland to England, England to America. Bought them just after Christmas, on 28th December. Been counting down since then. :)

    Saint Valentine would approve i`m sure. Far more then he would over the anatomically incorrect cards. The Doctor would also approve I suppose what with the wibbly wobbly timey wimey. Enjoy you`r time stateside, wish you both the best.

    My happiness comes from Phil seeing his shadow, today. Early spring....I mean...farmers almanac still calls for a long winter and that`s probably more reliable than a rodent but a man can dream. Plus I no longer have to throw hands with a groundhog.

    My main character is a chief of police for a fictional city call Pasadena. His organization is called the the Imperial police force of Pasadena and his badge number is my old store number

    I'm just wondering what went through their heads. I mean, I know they did it on purpose, but why?

    It's too late at night for me to actually analyse this shit. I just take it at face value.

    Tomorrow is the first day of a two day photography conference in NYC. My photography club sent out a email of where to claim free tickets. Was entertaining going to the actual conference for a bit. No real travel budget but free ticket, family in the city, found a hostel near the site that was way cheaper then the hundred a night hotel, but that darn train ticket was still a killer. Train because there`s a station right in town and a plane ticket wouldn`t have been any cheaper I don`t believe. However access to the live stream is also free through the links so I`ll get to watch the main stage speakers which i`m happy for that.

    Also happy to be settling more and more into a semi disciplined routine.

    Loved those books and the film. Haven`t watched the new series though. Part of me doesn`t want to disturb my memory`s.



    Really excited for today, hoping for it to be both informative and productive. As i`ve been documenting here in my blog and such i`ve been working hard to get into more of a disciplined and creative routine and life, after certain struggles. Feel myself getting there, got up, dressed, had breakfast, ready to go, and it only just turned nine. That`s new. :D Was worried about losing my insurance, but looks like I won`t so can try and find a therapist, i`m happy.

    The stream starts at 9: 30 with two speakers I really wanna listen to and then lunch and some speakers I`ll listen to while working on other things, then a afternoon break (yoga class and a yoyoer on the stream) that will be my writing time. Should work out well. Excited for the last three then I can go make brownies and corn bread. Gonna be a good and happy day.
