Signal Boost: Challenge: 50 Smuts of Gray

slodwick  is hosting an all-fandom challenge, and I highly approve!  50 Smuts of Gray will be fandom's improvement to that book.  Even if you don't want to sign up, you should visit to see the format of the prompts - very cool (no pun intended).

I especially love that one of the shades/prompts is named "vodka."  Now if I could only come up with an idea for that!

Additionally, the ever-sparkly kradamadness  will come out of hiatus in August for a challenge to celebrate the newest Kradam releases! I can't wait - the mad mad women over there come up with the best stuff.  Also, I feel I must acquire the newest releases to be able to play along (or at least appreciate the results).

Hello, Texas!

Hey internet, my boss just volunteered me for a taskforce that is holding it's brainstorming meeting in Texas next week.  I'll be arriving @ DFW 2:30 p on Monday and departing same 4:00 on Wed.  It will be my first time ever stepping foot in TX.

I'm looking for a rec for something interesting to do, and someplace cool to dine on Monday afternoon/evening.  I'm pretty sure the rest of my time will be consumed by co-workers, if not work.

Help a girl out?
