Mostly a good day; well, a good evening, anyway. I spent much of the afternoon feeling oddly down and discouraged, for no detectable reason.

The evening, though, was great: we arrived at Seanan McGuire's book signing early enough to get dinner at a tasty little Mexican hole-in-the-wall called Cactus, and still had time to hang out, buy copies, and get them signed. Lots of people we usually only get to see at cons, and it gave Colleen a chance to show her face in public. Yay! We win!

Sang for Colleen. I probably need to get streaming audio set up, don't I?

Two comments:

1. Maybe it was something in the air; John spent most of yesterday "oddly down and discouraged" and I don't think it was JUST because we had to clean up and figure out how to deal with the cats having thoroughly peed the wood floor in the family room. (Remind me why we have cats, anyway...)

2. Yes, you could do streaming audio and then LOTS of us could listen!

Looking back, I think some of it may have been release of tension, between Wednesday's demo at work and our Seattle friends yesterday.

As for streaming audio... it's been on my list for most of a year now.
