A party at Bruce Sterling's house. *ahem* A Party At Bruce Sterling's House.

And I was there. He lives in Austin. How cool is that?!

Oh, Jon came, too.

And then on Sunday, we celebrated our friend Chris's (1 of many) birthday with a barbecue (but not that barbecue). It was much fun. And we gave Chris a DVD of The Dark Crystal, which I am deciding, more and more, was a really awesome gift.

Which reminds me that I hadn't mentioned that Jon got converted from a contractor to a full Apple employee the other day and will soon be purchasing a DVD-playing "snow" iMac with his 25% discount.
