Hello, World! (Or at least the little portion of it that belongs to LJ-land!)
Looks like I've done gone and left my poor journal to languish in obscurity for a fortnight or so. In times like this, I believe the convention response is: Whoops!
To be fair, I have had the best of excuses. The day after my latest entry, my beloved![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
cheshcat and I had a visit from the effusive EB -- a fellow attendee of the Sooper Sekrit October Pagan Festival who, alas, has no LiveJournal.

Two of those days were spent attending OpenCon Catalonia, a lovely weekend event for polyamorous people. The other three were for exploring!

Each of these remarkable destinations deserves a write up of its own, replete with photos. Time will tell if they get the travelogues which they so richly deserve.

[*] Which I had been to before, albeit briefly, in July 2001.
