Birthday achieved

[owlmoose]

In contract to last years multi-week extravaganza, I had a nice low-key birthday today: vet appointment in the morning, quiet afternoon at home, dinner out with a few friends. The vet trip was Tori's regular check-up, which now happens every couple of months or so. The news was extremely good -- all of her blood tests came back in the normal range for the first time ever, so we can keep tapering down her meds. Best birthday present I could have gotten.

I did get another gift, for myself: an iPad Mini, dark gray with a bright red cover. Finally, a multi-purpose tablet that's exactly the right size for me to use as an eReader! Is this the moment that I being to shift away from paper books? Perhaps, although I don't expect I'll ever ditch them entirely.

Tomorrow will be another quiet day, and then Friday is the first day of FogCon. Yay, FogCon! If you'll be there, let me know and we can find a time to meet up.

If there's a reasonable possibility for me to pop on over for a SF adventure, it'd probably be on Saturday. Looking at the con schedule makes me start yearning for me to be there, so I'll look into how to get there ^^

Drop me an email if it looks like you're going to make it -- owlmoose at gmail. I hope you can! It's reachable by public transit (BART), though a bit of a haul from Santa Cruz.
