Actually, you'd need to have seen the Clone Wars animated series so as not to feel utterly lost at the very beginning, with "Who's army is that? Who's that General? Why is there a war on?" If you just accept that there's a war on and that any droid with a gun is probably a bad guy, you're cool.

Is Christopher Lee playing Grand Moff Tarkin's Grandfather?

No. I can't say I really care.

Hi, Robin!

Yay for all the good things happening like vw's good job leads and bt's happierness.

The cat Sammie is in Cat-Heaven as there is a bird perched on the exterior window sill on one of the living room windows.

The cat Harvey thinks I need to lighten up. Life is silly, and I need to laugh more. I actually talked to an animal communicator and found that out... any one interested may read up on it at [link]

P.S. The short version is that the cats are cool with the moving to Minnesota thing. Does anyone have an RV we can borrow?

Vibing for cass. A hooray for vw. And for billytea, a wish that we see more of the new and improved version. I missed him on the first go-round.

Oy. Vey. I am 1500 posts behind in Natter and 900 behind in the now-closed Bitches. I'll never catch up.

connie, SLC was...interesting. I got a Stepford Wives feeling the entire time I was there. I'm sorry I didn't get to meet you, but the free time I had budgeted was eaten up by last-minute meetings. I should have stayed an extra day.

Was Monday night's weather typical? I thought the mountains themselves would blow over. Speaking of mountains, what a spectacular panorama. Gorgeous doesn't begin to cover it. One off-site event was held at the Olympic Park in Park City. It was nice to be high enough that my ears popped. Looking at snow-capped peaks in mid-May was a bit disconcerting.

So I'm home for a while, then I head to Nashville from June 6-9 and Detroit at the end of June. I think I have a good chance of finally catching up with meara in an airport.

Did I miss anything important?

I finished my Master's thesis but can't find a job.

I wussed out and didn't even try it after being gone for five days.

Woo hoo on the thesis-finishing, Sunil! Congratulations. The job will come soon enough, so enjoy this little bit of freedom while you can.

If Cash wussed out, then there's no hope for me. Please to let both of us off the hook?

Such a lot of good news on my screen today! So nice to hear that BT is happy and seeing Aussie peregrine falcons from his workspace.

Cutiehead Owen: AAAAAaaaawwwwww.

Threadsuck and tell yourself you'll catch up later, when you have time, Maria. It's worked well for me.

Not, mind you, actually catching up, just lying to myself about it.

I'm trying, but I feel like I'm not free until I have the promise of a cash flow in my future. And it doesn't help that my parents keep bugging me to move back home (and get a Ph.D., they will never shut up about the fucking Ph.D.), but I don't want to move right now, I need to stay put and get my bearings so I can find a real job, but I need money so I can afford to live.
