"Drive-by" post for now; hope to write something more substantial later...

Yesterday was one of those days that starts out looking promising and then turns crashy -- wound up two days behind on LJ by this morning 'cause I didn't read my flist before I started slowing down. Crawled into bed all headachy and tired but didn't sleep much until late ... and then pain woke me again after an hour and a half. Wheee.

I expect to be at the Maryland Renaissance Festival on Sunday (closing day). I will be performing with The Homespun Ceilidh Band in Frederick, MD on Saturday.

I am experiencing a new and different set of problems with electronic communication (this time involving difficulty reaching customer-support for a prepaid-wireless phone-card), which I hope to have resolved soonish.

My VCR glitched sometime before Smallville this week; was it an episode I need to beg someone for a copy of before watching the next one (for continuity reasons), or can it wait until rerun season?

Sunday: YAY! Glenn-hugs!

Saturday: When? Where? It's not on HCB's calendar!

Whoops -- it ought to be. And it's something you might enjoy for more than the music, too. Here's the blurb from Felicia's most recent mailing:

I will be at MDRF on Sunday. No DoW garb - no inspiration this year. (I blew my load the last two years. :-) )

Not a whole lot of importance (if any) from Smallville. Reading the episode summary on-line should be sufficient.
