Going Away for a few days...
Jun. 13th, 2003 02:46 amI'm just now STARTING to pack to go away for the weekend. Celebrating my best friend's birthday up in New York. Whoa... deja vous! ;-)
I'll be gone Friday through Tuesday, I think. I might come home on Wednesday, but I hope not as I have a lot I want to do and want to get back sooner rather than later for my cat's sake if nothing else. He's VERY needy, my cat.
Anyway, I'm just going to sit on my fics and post them when I get back, that way I don't have to sort through my mailbox as much upon my return. I appreciate all the feedback you've given me about Deadly Medicine! It feels good to get something finished for a change :-) Glad it was enjoyable :-)
I'm going to find something to eat and then start organizing and packing. We're leaving here in... 5 hours and thirty minutes... hopefully I'll manage a few hours of sleep, between trying to pack and trying to clean. *crosses fingers*

Date: 2003-06-13 12:02 am (UTC)I'm going to my cousin's wedding this weekend, though hopefully I'll be home Sunday night or Monday morning. Either way, I need to be leaving in, oh, 6 and a half hours, and I've just started packing. I need to pick what to wear, do a couple loads of laundry, and maybe, just maybe grab a bit of sleep.
I don't have a kitty to worry about just yet, but I'm planning on going to the local Animal Shelter and adopting a kitten just as soon as I get home. I've been waiting until I get unpacked and settled, so that kitty won't be freaked when she moves in. Maybe when you get back, you can help me come up with some ideas for names. I'm getting a female, and I'd like it to somehow relate to Tolkien or something else fannish. Anyway, I've rambled long enough...back to packing!
Take care traveling, TG!

Date: 2003-06-13 12:10 am (UTC)Awwwww!!! A kitten! My cat has practically been begging me for a brother or sister lately... he's a mama's boy and very needy, and I can't be with him all the time. But similarly, I may be moving in a few months so I don't want to get one until I get settled somewhere new. Cats don't like drastic changes.
Hrmm... I'm not so good at names, but I think your idea is fabulous. I always wanted to have pets named after Highlander characters, but when it came down to it, just couldn't bring myself to call a cat Methos :-) So mine's named after a character in Velvet Goldmine, which was what I was currently obsessed with at the moment of aquisition.. it's a nice way to reflect on past obsessions...
But it's hard to deny that a nice elvish name would sound too gorgeous to pass up for a pretty little female kitten!
And just to prove I'm bad at names, I actually bought a baby naming book many years ago and use it to come up with new character names- I'm THAT bad at it. LOL :-) But I love seeing derrivations and meanings... so it's fun, too :-)
Erg.. now I really have to finish my work and get packing! lol
Have a great weekend!!!!!!!!!
