There and back again: Day 9

Updating early today because I will probably be too tired to update tonight.

First of all, to all the praying types--your prayers worked because kheetor84 avoided surgery and is noticeably perked up now, according to the last update from her beau.

Going to the Georgia Aquarium in a couple hours; should be fun. Don't plan to do much with the actual sci-fi con today because, well, it's just not me. If they had a couple more Doctor Who things, maybe, but they don't have all that much and the things they do have will be happening at the same time as the room party I'm going to. Maybe next time the timing will be better.

Aloha!
