This Week With The GeekMoms

Brigid is blogging about balancing her artistic time between commercial work that feeds her tummy and personal work that feeds her soul.

Ariane started watching the first season of Game Of Thrones on DVD. She is consequently highly disturbed. She’s also fretting about a forecast of rain this weekend after a relatively dry California winter. What will she do indoors with a toddler all day?!

Chaos Mandy is celebrating her birthday a day early this weekend. She is trekking to her best friend’s house with her daughter and husband in tow. There will be table top roleplaying, learning how to play Magic again and even some birthday cake!

Judy Berna and her family are squeezing in every ski day they can, as spring tries to march forward. So far their local resort has had plenty of snow, but one of these days they’re going to have to switch out the skis in the back of the Suburban, with the BMX bikes. In the meantime she’s working diligently on finishing last edits on the book she hopes to have published by summer time.

Melissa Wiley is gearing up for a weekend trip to Wondercon in Anaheim, where she hopes to rendezvous with GeekMom Kristen AND ALSO IF SHE IS VERY LUCKY Kristen’s little daughter, aka the most beautiful godchild in the world.

Kelly Knox is taking the Earth back from the Reapers and staying up way too late to play Mass Effect 3. When she’s not fighting aliens, she and her daughter are happily working on springtime crafts while the rain keeps them inside all week.

Sophie is looking forward to next week’s Official Doctor Who Convention and receiving her brand new iPad 3. She hopes to have finished The Hobbit in the next 48 hours as part of the GeekMom book club.

Patricia and her family are currently enjoying a Spring Break trip visiting family in West Virginia and North Carolina.  She’s very much looking forward to finally meeting GeekMom Natania and her family this weekend!

Dakster Sullivan is looking forward to the arrival of her new iPad on Friday. On Saturday her family will be taking a break from armor-building and instead go to Epcot to celebrate St. Patrick’s day with some friends.

Ruth survived a week of SXSW, including a vicious Mindstorms hackathon and being on two panels, then made it home in one piece just in time to see a Kevin Smith show.
