In which we return to Real Life.

Home! Got in about two hours ago -- and that worked out because I shamelessly begged a lift home from my parents earlier in the week, rather than taking TTC like I usually do -- and sifting through e-mail/eating pizza/being in my apartment.

It is too quiet. I miss my writers and kitties and scenic cacti.

I do have some last dribs and drabs of trip pictures, though:



This is that one picture I snapped at Colossal Cave on Thursday before the cellphone battery gave out. As you can tell, it is a cave that is very large.



Yours Truly, post-gothing on Friday night. This was actually right when I was taking off my makeup. Really, I love the new Goth blouse and the steampunky way it works with the glass pendant and I was just proud that I pinned my hair up and it stayed up through all that headbanging.



Another trip to the Red Velvet Cupcakery before we descended on the Tucson Festival of Books yesterday morning. [livejournal.com profile] coffeeem and [livejournal.com profile] willshetterly can haz cupcakes.



A wide shot at the festival, and our very own [livejournal.com profile] jennygadget, complete with home-baked blood-spatter cupcakes, after the Shadow Unit panel. I shot that one from the panel room stage, so it's a bit wonky.

And finally, the last Tucson installments of Signage: An Occasional Series.



And that is that for CupcakeCon 2010.


Needless to say I'm bagged -- we were up this morning at 4:30 to get to the airport in time for various flights -- but if I owe you e-mail or whatnot, I will endeavour to have everything caught up by Tuesday evening.

(And then she fell down with an audible fwump.)

coffeeem didn't drop, just in passing or anything like that, when the sequel to Territory might make its long-desired appearance, did she?

Maybe? Pleeeeze?

Hee. No, unfortunately, I do not have that knowledge.

I adore that pic of you.

Thanks! <3

I am stupidly enamoured of that top. I may have to go steampunk my shit up more often.

Squeeee! I am full of week-long squee!

I call and raise your squee!

The morning you guys left--and I suspect it was shortly after you drove away--Toby came in and woke me up. The monkeys are all gone! he said. I am lonely! I lack pettnz! Make them come back!

I agreed that it was a very sad state of affairs, indeed. He made the best of things by going back to sleep on the bed.

Hee. He was really invested in getting outside with us. Something was making kittylike noises! He had to investigate!

(Hint: coyotes.)

Love the blouse.

Thanks! Considering the place I got it usually does officewear, I am doubly pleased with it.
