Another #dragoncon in the books. Tenth one for me and Jon, kiddo’s fourth. She even got to go on stage for a cosplay contest, which made her night. Jon also performed, of course.

We're still relatively okay here with the fires. Surrounded by them but not in the direct line of any, so more fortunate than many.

Here's a link to one place to donate for those in need who lost their homes with the Eaton Fire if you're looking to help: pasadenacf.org/donate/

What's it like being married to a magician? I send him photos of random dollar store stuff with the question, "for magic?" because a tiny toy plunger is why we have a roof over our heads.

What’s it like being married to a magician? Sometimes a box of giant engagement rings shows up on our doorstep and I don’t even bother asking why
