Oi.

Posted at 04:48 AM on Saturday, February 24, 2007

What a week it's been. I thought it would be a good idea to log on and share a little about what's been going on, so you guys don't worry.

First things first... Liz' dad has gotten a LITTLE better than he was as of my last update. This is just as of tonight, actually - this whole week has been really rough up to this point. Liz has been in Reno since Monday night - she ended up taking a late flight out to be with her mom as soon as she could. I've been here at home trying to hold down the fort, and I'm more or less going out of my gourd without her. I never really realized how much I needed her around here. This is the longest we've been apart since we met, 5 years ago. That's kind of crazy to think about.

Anyway, she'll be in Reno 'till her dad is released from the hospital, so hopefully that won't be too much longer. If the weather permits, I'm going to try and drive up there on Sunday... so we'll see.

I want to personally apologize for the delay in sending out the Charisma 20 shirts. Liz is the one who usually handles all the store stuff, and I'm kind of clumsy at it. Work has kept me pretty damn busy these past few days, so I'm doing my best trying to get all these orders packed. I'm going to try to have everything out the door by monday - that's my goal.

I also want to thank everyone who's donated in the past few days - it's helped us out more than you can possibly imagine. I've finished the wallpaper for the RLSG - everyone who's donated thus far will get it. Once I get the RLSG page back up, it'll have more info, as well as a picture of it. (It's a picture of the Puddle Jumper making its approach to the space station - it didn't turn out half bad, if I do say so myself.) Instead of doing this through the forums like we did before, I'm going to simply send a .zip file with all the pictures in it to RLSG members - it ensures everyone gets it. Thanks again to everyone - your help has been invaluable.

And now, I've gotta get to bed. We've got 100+ covers scheduled for tomorrow, so I'm sure it's going to be another crazy night.
