Brian's getting hooded in the morning!

(Ding dong, the bells are gonna ring!)

Friday morning my beloved will be "hooded" Dr. Gray with all suitable pomp and circumstance during the University Graduate Exercises at Hill auditorium. My parents and Rosie and I all plan to be there.

We'll be having dinner later with his supervisor and whatnot, so no, I'll not be at Penguicon on Friday, but I am currently aiming to come by with Rosie Saturday during the day. I hope to catch friends there I've not seen in too long.

And maybe Rosie will hit the pool in her new Octopus swimsuit. (hmm.. that actually sounds a lot cooler than it is).

Do you want to drive out to P-con together? I was also planning to go only on Saturday.

Sure, that would be great. what time do you want to go? I want to be there in time for lunch.

Cool. I could probably be ready to go by 9:30 or so? It takes about an hour to get from my place to the hotel. If you want to leave later, that's cool, but I'd prefer not to leave too much earlier if that's okay.

Sounds good. I'll plan to be at your place between 9:30 and 9:45 and give you a call if I'm going to be much later.

Oh, man. Now I want an octopus swimsuit. (I'm imagining something with a skirt of long tentacles.)
And congrats to Dr. Gray. :)

I know, right? The one she has actually has a print involving octopi in an otherwise normal swimsuit/coverall pattern, but once I wrote octopus swimsuit, that image immediately came to mind.
