What do you mean there’s no internet?

I’ve been on the road quite a bit this summer. Nothing exciting. Just things that needed to be taken care of. Two weeks ago I was in Seattle getting my youngest settled into a new place and I caught the Star Trek exhibit at the EMP Museum. Okay. That was exciting. And yeah, the last one leaving the nest is pretty thrilling. Not a week at the beach thrilling but yay, thrilling. So, scratch that. This summer has been awesome!
Thanks to a lack of internet at wee one’s new apartment, and another quick trip last week, I’m finally catching up here.
EMP has a lot to offer. Most likely. I skimmed it all looking for the Star Trek exhibit. Costumes, sets, props, miniatures, a borg chamber and a transporter set where you can act out a scene, complete with special effects, while a friend or kindly stranger records it from a monitor with their phone. There was a line and I was alone so I skipped that part.





I did manage to find someone to snap a few photos of me in the borg chamber. How does somebody take out of focus photos on an iPhone?



On a cold rainy night like tonight, all I want to do is bury myself under a zillion blankets and pop in some of the original series. Since I still have some edits for How to Sex Your Snake, that will have to wait.
Go boldly and write on,
Melissa

I wish I could take credit for that line. It came from Marina Sirtis, the actress who played Deanna, while describing her ridiculous costume first season. She said it in an interview and I thought it was pretty damn funny and accurate.
