How does this work? (me futzing with the camera while Patty laughs)


Yay! (Patty and I, slightly blurry)


I'm sure everyone takes this shot, but we were sorta awed by it. I love wacky place-names like this.


seagull hates you.

with AXL at the Torchwood/Doctor Who wake at WriterCon. Yes, the baby's initials are AXL, I'm not even kidding. Also, baby was strong and kept trying to climb on my shoulder! AXL brought to you by miep and cozzene.


the post-it fic written by miep, kalichan, invisible_lift and I that SOMEONE will post SOMEDAY.


Future city!


Okay, it's not a dragon, but a bird, but can I use this crazy habitrail town as an inspiration for New Cardiff though? please?

Future city (there is, btw, in this and one other shot a fountain in the ceiling that rains down into that atrium, but you have to look closely and at the larger versions to see it).!

Glad you enjoyed our town! The habitrails took me a long time to get used to when I moved here, but after a while it seems really natural. The hardest part was trying to navigate, as there are obviously no street signs on the 2nd floor, so you can get turned around and not know where you are rather quickly, especially when you go through Macy's. Were you downtown on Thursday during the farmer's market?

(Potentially not that interesting trivia note: the balcony of the IDS Crystal Court with all the ivy-like plants hanging down? In the opening credits of the Mary Tyler Moore Show.)

Also, while you are a striking and beautiful woman, in these pics you are a smokin hot guy. I don't mean that in a gender-insensitive manner; you just look like a very handsome man.

Thank you! That's what I'm going for when I wear the suit, so that's fabulous to hear.

I didn't get into MNP until late Thursday, so I missed that, but miep took us walking around on Friday and we saw free music and a wacky fountain. I was sort of inordinately fond of all of it.

Ooo, which wacky fountain? We have a bunch of them. Was it over by Orchestra Hall, with big bronze tube-column things? Or the one that looks like a giant dandelion made of water?

I think the crazy bird inside Gaviidae looks like a pterodactyl, therefore entirely suitable for any manner of Torchwood fic!

I hope you'll come back one day; I would love to meet you and have a coffee.

Bronze tubes! Yes, I kept saying it looked like the site for Torchwood Hub 17.2 or something.

I can never resist climbing down into that one, even in work clothes.
