I'm on a boat! The JoCoCrazy Cruise #7. Good fun, meeting some very cool and fun nerds. Actually chatting a bit with N who was a crush of mine 2 years ago that I handled badly so that kind of feels good. I have a new brain!Crush on Yessika who's currently living in Seattle, she's smart and funny and tattooed and we share some fandoms (most particularly Check, please!) plus she's mentioned a few others I may go try.
Concert last night was good fun, and next up is a forum on international day of the woman (today)... There's a Poly meetup tonight, and Jeff and I are thinking of hosting a gathering in our suite tomorrow. More fun stuff upcoming...
In news of the hand recovery... I seem to alternating days of loads of PT and days of just use it as normally as possible, and the recovery is slow and steady. Enh. I'm still impatient and want it to be "fixed already" but yeah. It is what it is, it heals at its own pace.

National women's day coincided with Cosplay Day here on the ship. There have been suffragettes costumes and there have been men wearing Bernie shirts and and a pussy hats. There have been a lot of women wearing red and a lot of people of different genders wearing costumes for female Heroes. I saw a man wearing Princess Peach, and another woman wearing a Wonder Woman ball gown with a full hoop.

today the workshop I went to that affected me the most was called women and work. on the panel were three comedians three musicians rap artist and the writer and producer of Steven Universe.
