Meanwhile, I do the boring stuff.
Non-boring stuff you've done includes getting bitten by a monkey and coming home to discover a squatter had taken over your house. Are you really going to wish for a more interesting life, Gus?
This isn't a come-on. I'm in a very serious relationship with a landscape architect.

Tries to wrench this back forcibly to Firefly...
The Chinese pictogram for "trouble" depicts "two women in one house.", implying that trouble will follow this situation.
The ultimate Chinese curse is "May you live in interesting times," implying that trouble closely attends interesting times.
My life has never been that interesting. Dang it.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
So the next time Gus is out of town, we get two go-go dancers to move into his place?

And they can go-go to the tune of an organ grinder with a dancing monkey!!
(Gus, you do realize that, many decades from now at your funeral, Buffistas will be putting stuffed monkeys into your coffin, don't you?)

Sure. Send me to plush monkey hell.

I am not sleeping because I am about to drive about 80 miles to pick up my goilfriend at the Minneapolis airport. She has finally broken loose from her latest science coma* long enough to get on a plane to come stay at Casa Gus for a few months.
I am all excited, and stuff.
- A "science coma" is that thing that happens when you get an idea that makes you forget to eat for a while.

Cool Gus. Is the goilfriends idea anything you can share? Or is it in the "yet unpublished needs to wait for peer review" stage?

Hey, Typo!
The goilfriend's idea ... I would tell you about it, but I am quite sure I would get the details wrong. She is smarter than me, you know. This doesn't bother me.
Much.
Anyway, she is not publishing, just yet. She has just reached a point where she can spare a day or two to travel.

Hey, bring the goilfriend to Chicago during Lee's visit next month.

OOH, yeah!

Golden Grrl, I just might. I'm seriously behind on the f2f buzz. This is my first cue that there will be a Chicago thing.
