When all is dark
And the world asleep,
Then cunning-like
The thoughts do creep.

Warily I go
Through mist and mott and fen,
Guided by a candle-light
And the scratching of my pen.

I'm still recapping Ottawa ComicCon.  You're welcome.


Vendors on My Left

I have already mentioned The Ottawa Browncoats.  They were the folks we shared a table with for the weekend.  They're an awesome bunch of people who are Firefly fans that want to make a difference.


Every year they host an event at the Mayfair Theatre here in town - a charity screening of Serenity, the film that wrapped up all...

Before I do anything, I'd like to wish The Amazing Flatmate the HAPPIEST of BIRTHDAYS ever in the history of birthdays.


HAPPY BIRTHDAY!


Good morning everyone!  It is Monday - and a public holiday here in Canada.  I'm using that as an excuse to be lazy and not really write a blog post.


I am currently dog sitting for a friend.  The beautiful, very affectionate Bassett Hound I'm sitting is currently curled up on the...

I'm taking the week to recount the 2nd annual Ottawa ComicCon.  You're welcome.


Day Three

8:15am

Sleep in!  Blissful sleep.  I went to bed so very early last night, and woke up so very refreshed and ready.  Honestly, at almost 30, I think my body is still very much in teenage mode.  SLEEP ALL THE TIME!  In any case, it was a good, long night's sleep and I was feeling so much better about this day than the day bef...

It's ComicCon Week!

Posted by S.M. Carrière on May 13, 2013 at 10:00 AM Comments comments (4)

Good morning!  I hope this cold, blustery Monday morning finds you all well.  I'm very well, thanks for asking.  A little tired, as I had a very busy weekend.  I should have planned ahead and taken today off from work to recover.  Alas, I am not that bright.


As most everyone who reads this blog knows, this weekend just past was Ottawa ComicCon.  There is a lot of information to relate, so I'll be taking all week to recap it for you.  You're...
