I've been feeling that way for a long time, Hec. But I think I'm stuck unless monkeys fly out my butt, to get Wayneand Garth about it.

You need to get unstuck. I'm willing to send you the monkeys, if you're willing to stick the flying ones up your ass. You've got to show a little commitment.

Phoenix isn't great. Not at all. I keep trying to find the great *parts* but it's not happening.

Umm, the October to May parts? :)

Plus, the Padres from February to April! (That would be more for me, though, I guess).

Umm, the way the streets are laid out on such a perfect grid? Anything?

Salt Lake has perfect grids! She could come to Salt Lake!

Except for winter and Mormons.

It would take a lot of committment for me to shove a monkey anywhere, Hec. Yeah, with all my good looks and friends in high places and the country being in such a fricking *generous* mood lately. The timing just couldn't be worse for this urge. I wish I could shove it back in its box, honestly, but it isn't allowing me to go back to that, either. Maybe when the book comes out...if the book comes out. Yeah, ok, winter weather, Changing Hands books, The New Times and... Mill. (But I only get out there a few times a year. Living on the other side of town.) Connie, we have assloads of Mormons here, not to worry.

Coming a little late to be VERY JEALOUS OF NORA.

There are dire suspicions that Salt Lake City itself is sinking into Hell. In Amy's neighborhood there are *two* coffee shops, right across the intersection from each other.

Seany! Haven't posted at the same time as you for a million years!

How goes the co-habitation? Anything interesting in the job sitch? Oh, yeah, and the baby pictures you posted a while back? Too cute for coherent speech.

NO! Are you attracting a bad element already?

I thought that the next nearest Hellmouth was in Cleveland?

Hey Epic! The cohabitation goes very swimmingly. Not too much new and interesting on the job front. I've got a couple of little things here and there, and I'm shooting a short film over four days in a couple of weeks.

My nephew is incredibly cute. I miss him. He apparently missed EVERYBODY after our little family weekend over Memorial Day. For, like, four days, he was just constantly being doted on and hovered over. Anybody would miss that kind of attention.
