Pink Slips, Porn Stars, Rats, and Cousins - the last few weeks.

So the past few weeks have been pretty fun, and at the same time, pretty trying. Just yesterday, I received a notice that I'm being laid off. Thanks, Arnold! (Don't let anyone ever tell you that all politicians are the same, by the way.) I think my odds of being rehired are pretty good, but I still am very nervous and fear the worst.

Despite the proverbial ax looming over my neck on the job front, the last few weeks have been actually pretty fun. I've had lots of visitors. First, my old friend from my days at UND on the Student Senate, Ira Taken Alive, was in San Francisco for a convention, and we met up with Kym and Lars Teppo, and it was a great time. On the same day, I went to see the Wondercon Convention, where one of my co-workers, Age Scott, was showing the comic book that he does. That was pretty wild - see the pictures below. Then, I went back to the Hyatt in Downtown San Francisco to meet Ira again. On the way back, I bumped into the Chinese New Year Parade, and took lots of pictures. Happy Year of the Rat!

Finally, two weeks ago, my cousin Kala Larsen and her husband, Darren, came to visit. In addition to this, my other cousin, Adam "Flounder" Luebke moved to Davis, California. We did all sorts of things - see the pics below (and more to come.) It's always good to have visitors.

Go Badgers!

It's down the page a little bit - she's with a forest storm trooper.

Do visit! By the way, who is this?
