Why no submission this year, Gail?Ask me over coffee sometime, somewhere.
Are you going to be there?
I don't know. Company won't pay for me to go since I'm not presenting. I'll see what I can beg out of them in terms of concessions for PASS and MVP summit. I don't have enough leave to take 2 weeks off, especially as I may need to take leave for the Fridays for the three local SQLSaturdays, and the vet bills put a dent in my savings.
It'll be hard to ask you over coffee if you don't make the Summit. Hope you are able to work it out with your company. It won't seem like Summit without you there.

Agree with you on the last sentence. And also I was hoping the two of us would be in the front row for your first Summit presentation 😉 I would / will expect no less of yourself :w00t: 😛

GAH. I am such a breakfast person. But this morning, no food. Fasting bloodwork test in 95 minutes.Someone pass the internet cookies. They don't affect bloodwork, right?
Bleargh. Feed me, Seymour.
It does however, make the breakfast that immediately follows the test taste so much better.
FOOOOOD, Glorious FOOD!
What wouldn't I give for...
Eating right now, BTW. Nom. Nom. Nom.
Great I only had lunch an hour or so ago, and now I'm hungry again! 😛
Glad you got through that and enjoyed you "first" meal...

I found a photo of my Siamese.*sniff*
Okay, so how many looked at the cat and then looked at the books and thought "I have that one, don't have that one....I wonder which titles those ones are"?

Guilty.
Plus spitting and cursing at all the George RR Martin books. I've grown to really dislike that author.
I really did some cussing out of him while reading the books. I'd get into a character and suddenly they were dead. What the f....? My wife would hear me and say....so he killed off another one of your favorites? And now it's taking way too long for the next book to come out. I'm thinking about just ignoring the series and just dream of the ending I want.

I'm just watching the TV show. It's better. They have a good editor, which Martin desperately needed. No more books for me. I read through the series to this point, and I hated, I mean HAY TED, the last book. I finished it out of utter spite, just so I could curse with knowledge. Won't read any more, ever.
+1
I just watch the TV show. At some point I may have considered reading the books (like I did with LOTR), but now that I have read the comments I probably never will.
I heard somewhere that GRM told his ending to the TV show producers, so that if he dies they can still finish the series. Not sure if that is true.
Killing of main characters doesn't really disturb me. It's at least realistic that in his wars good people die as well. Problem is that a lot of the real bastards don't die but instead keep going on (i.e. the Boltons). Ah, they will get what they deserve in the end I presume?
Yeah, I also read he told the producers how he was going to end it....but not how he was going to get there. So the show has every possibility to take a different route to the end than Martin has planned. And if the show ends before he has all the books written...will he finish them following his 'road map' or will he use the tv show's road map?

I learned something this past Sunday, one of our three dogs (maybe all three) killed a snake in the back yard.
I found it while clearing large sticks and toys before I was going to mow the back yard. Never got to mow the yard as it started raining.

The posted answers should improve for awhile. A few days ago this happened:
My brand new baby girl! My first baby. I took a month off of work and the only SQL I will be dealing with for the foreseeable future is SQeezing my Little one.:satisfied:
