Red Shift at Arisia on Sunday

If you're going to Arisia this weekend, please come hear/see our live radio comedy "Red Shift," presented by The Post-Meridian Radio Players and written by our own derspatchel, taking place Sunday beginning at 1:00 PM. It's a fun sci-fi retro radio romp featuring the live voice and audio talents of derspatchel, eclecticavatar, gilana, pheromone, oakenguy, joyeous, furtim, audioboy, kissoflife, plumtreeblossom, and several non-LJers.

I'm told it will be in Presidential Ballroom D. Hope you can make it!

Life Aquatic

At Christmas my neice Emily gave me one of those toys that you put in water so it can it grow to umpteen times its original size (shut up pervs, it's a starfish). I put it in a bowl of water on Sunday morning when beowabbit was here, and at the time it was about 3" in diameter. It's since been transferred to a spaghetti pot, because it's now the size of a catcher's mitt. The bright orange color of the starfish's wee dehydrated self has faded to a disturbingly natural peachy starfish tone, enough so that I felt it wise to tell vanguardcdk that it was not a real starfish that I was fattening up for sushi, but a toy.

I want more of these strange things.
