So right now I'm sitting in my living room, kind of exhausted, looking at a green chair that used to sit in my Grandmother's living room. This weekend was eventful, and I'm tired.
Crysta and I went down to Milwaukee so we could spend father's day with my parents (along with some other family members). We went to the Brewer's game on Sunday, and like any game of baseball, it was a good time. I've never been a huge sports person, but I love watching a good live baseball game.
Honestly it was an amazing day.
Before I left town on Saturday though, I swung by the local No Kings protest here in Eau Claire, and then spent a chunk of time at the local Pride celebration. I tend to be a bit of a shut in these days, so with all the awful stuff in the news it was nice to remind myself that there are good people in the world willing to stand up for what's right and for each other.
My grandmother passed away not that long ago, and one thing I had my parent set aside for me was a chair. I realize that it looks a bit more gold in the photo, but trust me when I say it's green in real life. This morning I loaded it into my pickup and drove it across the state and got it into my living room. I loved this chair as a kid, and importantly... it swivels. And when I was growing up adults would always yell at me not to spin the chair. Well guess what, it's my chair now.
And no one can stop me from spinning.
I dunno -- it was just a lot of stuff in a short amount of time. We also went out to dinner after the baseball game yesterday, but I think I'll give my full opinion on that later this week in a different blog post. Because we went to a restaurant none of us had been to before, and uh... I have thoughts.
That was vague. I'm being vague. You're just going to have to be okay with that.

Lynn is clearly just a workaholic even though she despises being on the staff of Unagi Con
Lynn is beginning to read like a caretaker who needs things like a broken con to nurture.
She’s lucky to have a girlfriend like Megan that’s grounded. She sounds like she’d be a sucker for a needy screwup girlfriend. She dodges much misery with Megan but seems intent on making up for it.

Sometimes staffers feel an obligation to the con attendees or a responsibility to try to make things work out right.
Sometimes you’re doing something easy (for yourself) in order to get more volunteers for a different event.
Was it really an attack, or is Garner just stupid?
Maybe he saw the recent theatrical showing of “Smokey and the Bandit,” and it gave him a overly idealized view of truckers.
