A Year in the Making, day 359

Guess what? With what I made today, according to my calculations, I am now at 367 items! Wheeee! I finished early, even with all the slacking off I've been doing this month. I'll probably still keep with the making for the rest of the month, just in case I've made a counting error at some point during the year. I'm sure that couldn't have happened, because I haven't done anything like, say, mess up my day count (twice). Right?

First things first - here's the new ad I just made for the programming book for Steamcon II, now less than 3 months away!



And then I decided to play with some of my antique crystal beads:

Antique Black and Grey Crystal Earrings on Sterling Silver Earwires



Antique Black and Grey Crystal Necklace on Sterling Silver Chain



Antique Aurora Borealis Crystal Dangle Earrings on Sterling Earwires



I am now going to go have a huge bowl of chocolate ice cream to celebrate.

A Year in the Making, day 331

This post brought to you live from exciting Yakima, the Palm Springs of Washington. At least that's what the billboard outside of town claims. I have my doubts. There's not a palm tree in sight. It's hot hot hot, but a dry heat at least. It's in the 90s (low 30s for you Celsius folks), but I didn't break a sweat walking across the street to grab lunch. Of course, it was only a walk across street, so there wasn't that much opportunity to work up a sweat. More notable is the A/C in our conference room, which has me in danger of becoming a meat popsicle.

No on-the-road pictures, as I'm sure you're not all that interested in seeing the lovely view of the parking lot from my hotel window.

Here's a couple of quickies before we go back for the afternoon's session:
