What was the last TV show you watched?

Probably game one of the NBA playoffs round one series between the Indiana Pacers and the Boston Celtics, which took place on April 19. That was the first time I’d watched any television at all this year, and I haven’t watched any since.
 

What was the last thing you complained about?

In telling my mother about the 2003 DargonZine Writers’ Summit, which occurred last week in Austin, I probably complained to her about my writers’ inability to function short on sleep. They started getting irritable and snappish, and it really made the tone of the Summit’s final day very tense. You’d think they’d come prepared to deal with sleep deprivation; it’s not like it’s any different from any other year, and it’s about as simple an exercise in self-control as one could imagine…
 

Who was the last person you complimented and what did you say?

I’ve been complimenting a lot of people in the past few days. Most recently, I told the organizers and writers who attended my DargonZine Writers’ Summit:

As with everyone else, big kujos go to our hosts, Rhonda and Pam, and also to everyone else for their energy and just plain showing up. A tremendous amount of work went into the Summit, both before and during, and a truly tremendous amount of value came out of it, thanks to each of you.

What was the last thing you threw away?

A parchment-colored Post-It Note that listed my electric (heat) bills for the months from October through March for last winter and compared them to this winter.
 

What was the last website (besides this one) that you visited?

I went to PayPal to make sure that I could properly instruct the two people with whom I’d shared a hotel room at the Summit on how to pay me their portions of the bill.
