Things I did not do at retreat

Eat anything that required chewing.

Get enough sleep.

Refrain from expressing my opinions on diverse topics, or from issuing a challenge to libba_bray.

Purchase the Ominous Rabbit.

Purloin the lovely, minimalist signs for Towels and Sheets, which were also surreal, in that neither towels or sheets were in evidence in the vicinity.

Overhear any notable conversations from the Kyrios attendees sharing the space with us.

Meet anyone who wasn’t awesome. Visit Portland, y’all.

    “Refrain from expressing my opinions on diverse topics, or from issueing a challenge to Libba Bray.”

    I searched all, like, 8 pages of comments to see what your challenge was (i have read Libba Bray’s books, and read her journal regularly, so i wanted to see what you were talking about), but i couldn’t find anything written by you. Plus, I don’t see what the links for diverse and topics have to do with anything she said. So, what challenge were you talking about, and what opinions on diverse topics did she express?

    It was such fun having you with us this year. Here’s to many more…but hopefully with more ability to eat. ;^)

    Glad you made it home safely. Now, sleep…that’s my plan!

    hey sophie — libba and i were at a retreat together. the challenge i issued was in person, so there’s nothing about it online. it was more like a dare, really — and she rose to it, admirably!!

    the diverse topics are simply other things that people were talking about during the retreat.:)
