What a rainy weekend. That's why I haven't updated in the past couple of days; every time I wanted to get online it was storming, and the couple of times I did get online it was storming again within ten minutes.

Anyway, the book signing went really well. I was terrified, but it went well. :-) Sold six books, two of the first one and four of the sequel. I still have several copies left, so I'll think about it and decide whether that's enough for the arts and crafts fair or whether I should buy a few more of each before June/July. (I can never remember what month the fair is in. lol) And someone asked about the book covers (they said they especially liked the one for Unexpected!), so I got to talk a bit about Warsheep Productions.

And, to celebrate our refund from the IRS, Chris and I got some DVDs from amazon.com. (with the refinancing sometime next week, we'll be able to pay off the credit card, which means we can actually freely use it again! 'Freely' meaning 'completely responsibly and no I will not buy 244 character portraits at once, honest'. ;-))

We bought the DVD of Long Way Round. Watched all seven episodes yesterday, and the special features are on the list for sometime today. That is seriously what 'reality' TV should be like. Far too many favorite moments to list them all, I just know that I need to watch it again. Soon. Then maybe I'll be capable of a more coherent review.

We also got a couple of other things. A TV show, and a certain movie that follows said TV show. Kath, Debi, three guesses and the last two don't count. *G*

good, cuz I was so going to come down there and kick your, woop your, well, you know what, if you hadn't bought that.

jake 'made' me watch the jaynetown episode with him the other nite. I think thats one of my favorites.

cant wait to hear what you think about it all!

[allthelivesofme.livejournal.com]

LOL Yeah, Chris and I are planning on watching an episode a night.

Not gonna happen. You will watch the first dvd, and probably be into the second one before you realize that you have to get up in the morning. You will spend all day the next day thinking about it and wondering how many more hours until you can sit down and watch the next episode, which will, of course, turn into at least two, maybe three. You will have the whole set done by the end of the week.

Did I tell you that I got my brother a Jayne hat for his birthday? It should come in by the end of this week, I'm dying for it to get here.

First of all, invest in a UPS. It will allow you to continue to use the computer during the rain and will protect you against unexpected outages, too.

I am so excited that you got asked about the cover. I let out a rather loud whoop when I read that. :D And I'd like to think you sold more of Unexpected because of it, too. :D I will be sure to send you a stack of our business cards to hand out when you need to.

I really need to remember to get a couple of signed sets of the books from you guys to use at the conventions we hit.

*S* Yeah, someone at the signing asked about the covers, and when there was a poster for the signing up at the donut shop, I had about five or six people say that the book looked really good. :-)
