Well, the third thing happened this past weekend while we were at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nekocon.com\" target=\"_blank\">Nekocon<\/a>. My grandmother passed away on Saturday. She lived to be 93. That&#8217;s a long time when I sit and think about it.\u00a0She was born when Woodrow Wilson was president. She saw her husband sail across the sea to fight in World War II. She ran the family business &#8212; a floral shop where the telephone number was 714. Three numbers. That&#8217;s it. There were less than a 1,000 phones in the entire town. The years passed and the world changed and in time she was logging onto Skype so she could talk to her great\u00a0grandchildren.<\/p>\n<p>I need to attend her funeral and say my last goodbyes to her this week. My apologies, but there will not be a page update on Wednesday. I have a piece of art given to us by Rachel at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.tangentartists.com\" target=\"_blank\">Tangent Artists<\/a>. It is quite amusing. I&#8217;ll ask Diane to upload it on Wednesday. Also, I will try to get a photo album con report up for Nekocon on our <a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/SnowByNight\" target=\"_blank\">Facebook page<\/a> before I leave.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Almanac Reference: Rapscallion Vivienne and Marguerite go for the jugular in Page 6 of Losing by Winning.
