My cousin and her wife are over from England, and they’re staying with our mutual aunt in Virginia Beach. So my sister and I drove down Thursday and we’re staung until Sunday. We’ve had a great time so far, eating and walking and drinking and talking and now, I am tired.

Tomorrow I still plan to have a comicup, but not in a “right at midnight” sort of way…. More in a “it’s supposed to rain tomorrow so what else would I have to do?” sort of way.

There’s a huge lump of Irish setter asleep at the foot of my sofa bed. I can’t get a reliable wireless connection, even having brought my own wireless router. Red, the setter, is useless for the networking but might be able to eat the housefly that has fallen in love with my laptop screen. I miss Nighthawk tremendously, and the puppies, but I’m recharging my “family” batteries.

All in all, so far, so good. I’m happy.
