I took a friend's kids to their first comic convention while she sorted some personal stuff out. I lost them almost as soon as we got to the door and spent all day trying not to lose them again! Had a ball!
I rode my bike seventeen miles on Saturday and thirteen on Sunday, which isn't all that much given that I have a thirty mile event next Sunday (it's not a race if you're not timed and there's no winner). But it's something, and considering that the first leg of it involved getting from the peninsula I live on to mainland Boston by crossing several different bridges and biking over roads normally reserved for industrial vehicles and tractor-trailers, that's not too bad.
Also I went to the Boston Local Foods Festival on Sunday and came home with smoked sea salt produced on Martha's Vineyard, and a jar of caffeinated peanut butter (two tablespoons = 170 mg caffeine; for reference, Caffeine Informer says 8 ounces of standard Starbucks brewed coffee has 180 mg caffeine, and a tall Caffè Americano has 150 mg). The salt has been pressed into service making beef jerky for the office- half a batch, anyway, the other half batch was salted with a habanero-spiced salt because several guys expressed an interest in a hotter recipe and I had the habanero salt on hand.
Also I have been threading some fun stuff in the Fallout world with Voodoo, whose door malfunctioned on him in a spectacular way. We'll post that when the thread is done, but let's just say Pennsylvania brings the crazy.
