heidi | Joy and pain. Sunshine and rain.

Yay, I just registered for The Witching Hour! I also signed up for the lunch with Henry Jenkins, who interviewed me for his upcoming book, and who is probably the main reason why I am planning to come on Friday & Saturday. I won't be around at all on Thursday or Sunday, though, so I'll have to compress seeing all of you into those two days.

Yay, we got a phone call from our nanny this morning - her daughter had a baby overnight! He's a 7lb 3oz boy named Edward, and I can't wait to meet him!

Pain, my sidekick is still being Really Annoying in terms of replying to LJ comments. It seems that, because of the anonymity issue, I can't reply to anything friendslocked. At all. : makes enraged face

I know some people have replied to my griping on

news that this is a "beta project" but Brad didn't say it is, so I don't think I was wrong for presuming this was a full release. Believe me, as an admin myself, I know that people can react badly to changes, especially unexpected ones, but that's not what's going on for me here. It's just, a lot of what I use LJ for is reading posts and replying while I'm away from my computer, and now, in many cases, I can't do that at all, and where I can, it is now about four times more difficult. And that is, simply put, annoying.

So I have a small request - those of you who don't normally allow anon comments, can you, perhaps, until this is fixed, allow them with a screen? I, and the other sidekick users, will appreciate you. But I also totally understand if you don't feel comfortable doing so. Again, I say, "grrrr."

I'm off to plug in my new-to-me mac keyboard and wireless mouse. Yay for ebay!
