Randomness & Con News

It was wonderful to get to see xuth and of course it was difficult to leave. Sleeping in his arms is something that I ache for when we are not together. Lots of good constructive conversation was had. Lots of not so constructive conversation was had. *shrugs* Such is life. But I wouldn't trade getting to see him for anything in the world.

I voted in the Pegasus competition this year. It was my first time doing that. Sometimes I forget how much of a ConNewbie I am. *smiles* But it was wonderful hearing all of the great music. I had a lot of fun. Maybe I'll actually see about learning to play some filk. I always feel inspired after going to a Con and I do have a filk song in my head that I've been thinking about.

I got my first credit card in the mail today. A girl in the elevator asked me if I was going to go shopping. *shakes her head* I am continuously amazed by the way people of my generation do not understand the financial, or really any sort of, workings of the world. You'd think they'd have taught people about credit cards at some point.

Got an A on my HTML test. Got a C on my German test. Today has been a rocking day for my grades. (Yes, a C is good...it is a big improvement over my last tests.) I'm beginning to think I might get a 3.5 this semester...which would completely rock my world...An A in CS and an A in Modern East Asia, an A in Water Fitness and a C in German...I see good things coming of this.

I've been thinking about the way that I do poly for some time now. I know that everyone does poly differently, but I am fairly certain that for me relationships have a sort of heirarchy to their involvement levels, responsibilities and rights. I have been working out guidelines to how I see things and I think I just about have things the way I want them to be. I'm now offering these guidelines up to the LJ world that others may read it and think about how it effects, if at all, their world. I'd like to have feedback of the positive sort...I'm not interested in any sort of flame war or people telling me how I think is wrong. But, suggestions about syntax or word choice is very welcome. I'm sure these ideas will grow and evolve with me and these are guidelines not steadfast rules, but here we go:
