Yeah, so it's been several months since I've found the time and energy to update, but I just wanted to make a quick post saying that I'm going to be at Azkatraz (Harry Potter convention in San Francisco, for those few of you who may not know) starting this Thursday, and I hope to see some of you there! Let me know if you're coming so I can look out for you. I'm going to be there with my mom, Meghan, and my husband (who's coming along mainly to watch Meghan -- this HP stuff weirds him out a bit, I'm afraid ;) ). And yes, for those of you who may remember my last post about my mom being in the hospital on a ventilator, that means my mom is alive and well. :D A virus attacked her heart back in late March, and for a couple of weeks, we weren't sure if she was even going to make it, but she's all healed up and even healthier than she was before the illness.

Anyway, I hope to see some of you there. I'll be dressed as Hermione, escaped-from-prison!Bellatrix, and possibly another, supersekrit character, so look out for me! And when I get back, I think I will finally be back up and running LJwise. I've just had a lot going on over here, as well as a copyediting job from hell that caused me to put a sort of ban and mental block on activities I knew would suck me in and take up my time. But that's all over now, and so once I get back from Azkatraz, I should be back to updating and reading and all that.
