Hello Out There!

sdelmonteSo I never stopped reading Dreamwidth. I just stopped posting. And I suspect I am not likely to start up much again. I have more or less traded this sort of social media for posting on message boards and on substack channels, and maybe a couple of somewhat less toxic subreddits. But here I am, saying hi to all those making their voices heard anew on the 'Width.
Random stuff while I am here:
- Work is going well. I got an unexpected promotion over the summer, despite not being there even a year. Working in public media suits me, and I am learning about all sorts of stuff (even if I am not part of any decision making process).
- We are still very much isolationists. This seems unlikely to change until we move from the current vaccines to one that is closer to universally effective. Which is going to be a while. I expect to have to go to the office more sooner rather than later, but masks will be the order of the day. And I don't expect to set foot in a restaurant or in a movie theater any time soon. I don't really miss them as much as most.
- It's the World Cup, and I am thinking about filk, because the event is usually in June and usually during a filk con. Those of you going to Chessiecon this weekend, do me a favor and as you go from the function space to the rooms, take a peek at a game for me. (And yeah, not doing cons, either.)
- A million streaming services, and what am I watching? The Rockford Files. (OK, also Andor.)
- Similarly, my choice of comics included a lot of stuff from the 80s. I live in the moment. Just that the moment is in my youth.
Happy Turkey Day, all!
