The view of the future from a small rise in the present

[rolanni]

So, here we are at the start of a new week!  Let's see what's on the roster.

1. This is Week Five of the Do It Like A Delm Challenge.  We have two challengers already, both taking the theme of knitting.  You may view them here.  Think you can do better?  Enter the list of challengers!  Rules are here.  Don't want to enter, but really want some Cool Liaden Gear?  Here's your link, and remember!  Liaden Universe® shirts make wonderful presents!


2. Belle has developed a limp off of her right front leg.  We haven't been able to find anything obvious -- she just lies still and purrs when I probe; nothing seems to hurt.  So, anyway, a trip to the vet tomorrow, Just to Be Sure.


3. The guy who replaced the chimney was just here, and confirmed that, yep, that spot up there on the roof does need caulking.  Which he couldn't do today, because it had rained overnight, so! More contractors in our future.


4. Speaking of contractors:  We hope to hear back from the various folks who need to be involved in Generator Installation today, and!


5. Mike the Electrician will be by late in the week to install my new ceiling fan, a circumstance that fills me with a really embarrassing amount of anticipatory delight.


6. The Rocky Horror Show (the play; the movie is The Rocky Horror Picture Show) will be playing at the Waterville Opera House in late October.  I tried to buy tickets online this morning, forgetting that the Opera House's website never does work properly in re the online purchase of tickets, and I will therefore need to make a phone call.  Boo.  On the other hand, I've never seen Rocky Horror, and really ought to close this gap in my fannish resume.


7. We have a Skype interview scheduled for next Monday, which means that this week?  I need to get a haircut.


8. Besides all that, of course, we have work to do, stories and novels to write!  So, yanno -- onward, upward, and sideways, as appropriate.

And that?  Is all I got.

Here, have a picture of Belle and Sprite to start your week off right:

Belle and Sprite. Apparently, Sprite has just been Interesting.

Definitely a gap that needs closing. Good luck with the ticket purchasing and the various household modifications.

Most assuredly am "educational gap" that needs filling.

However, if you have the time (and can find a copy) you must complete your education with the RHPS on DVD.

Tim Curry in drag, Meatloaf (singer actor) Susan Sarrandon (Janet, dumb heroine), Barry Bostwick, (dumber hero), Little Nell are not to be missed.

The movie ran at the midnight shows for over 20 years before it was officially released.

Rocky Horror

Back when I was in college people went to the midnight show of Rocky Horror regularly. I may be the only person I knew who had only seen it once. Seems like I've run across it on TV since then though.

Please let us all know how Belle's vet visit goes.
