Posted on June 23, 2021 by Silverwynde

Robo Con was just last weekend; it seems like it’s going to be the last one. I guess when it came between the conventions, BotCon won out. I’m not surprised. Which leads me to the subject of today’s post. It … Continue reading →

Kinda, Sorta, Maybe

Posted on June 7, 2021 by Silverwynde

Over the weekend, I managed to stumble across my old laptop bag; I’ve had it for several years and purchased it well before I had an actual laptop to slide in there. It’s designed a bit like a briefcase, but … Continue reading →

Hitting the Fan

Posted on February 23, 2021 by Silverwynde

There’s been an update on BotCon and it’s fairly upsetting; we’re not having a multi day convention this year. It looks like 2022 is our best bet. I’m a little upset, but it’s understandable; we’re not going to be anywhere … Continue reading →

Didn’t See That Coming

Posted on July 1, 2020 by Silverwynde

In the immortal words of Bender: We’re boned. It’s official: Robo-Con has gone virtual. There’s even a virtual con package so you can get the BotCon exclusives without a lot of worry. I pretty much expected this. There really was … Continue reading →

Posted on June 8, 2020 by Silverwynde

Totally. Last weekend was supposed to be Pete’s Robo-Con but it’s been moved to July because of the pandemic. Now, I took the time off thinking that Prime and I would take a brief road trip and go, but that … Continue reading →

Going Viral

Posted on March 11, 2020 by Silverwynde

This is so true, it’s painful. We are completely out of toilet paper. We’re even running low on the industrial strength stuff that’s usually just purchased for business/resale use. Supposedly, we’re not supposed to sell more than five cases of … Continue reading →

Posted on March 4, 2020 by Silverwynde

Lulu, you just had treats! Lots of them! (Nope, totally not spoiling the purrincess…) Yesterday, I decided to take a look around Walmart before I headed into work; it’s fairly obvious that people are panicking about the coronavirus. There’s no … Continue reading →

Whiskey Tango Foxtrot

Posted on February 26, 2020 by Silverwynde

I doubt liquor is the answer but I’ll be damned if it isn’t worth a shot. Tuesday was yet another cluster; I honestly thought I was working 11 to 16 that day. However, it was actually 10:30 to 15:30 and … Continue reading →
