PAX starts tomorrow and my wardrobe is READY. The readiness of many other aspects of my PAX attendance is a little questionable still, but my clothing choices have been made (and then that chosen clothing made, b/c I imagined it rather than actually finding it in a store) & scheduled & I am ready! I […]

There is not enough room in on person’s childhood to contain all the game-playing, book-reading, movie-going, tv-watching, toy-possessing or adventure-making out there. […]
