I bet the kids are wicked excited, and I hope your mom is, too! How old are the kids?

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Happy Birthday dear Brendy!
You are very bendy!
And you're also quite preeeeeety
In your corset-o-kitty!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

How old are the kids?

I'm guessing they're probably not in the high-school age group, so probably 14 and under. But old enough to travel by themselves, with two chaperones.

Have a Brendarific Birthday!

I am off work today and tomorrow for the last of the Jewish high holidays...so I am in San Diego visiting Cass. We are about to go get food and look at the clouded leopards in the zoo.

You may commence with the jealousy.

ETA: Brenda, Cass says to add her happy birthdays to my post too.

Hey - it sounds like a fun trip. Well, I hope your mother has fun -- I bet the girls in the chorus will for sure!

That's great, Dana.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

in fear that I will have to put on the heat or kill someone - ( who knew that cold could make me cranky) I readjusted the thermostat. I have to look for a new one. I'd like one where I can 1) have a different morning temp then evening and 2) have more adjustments on the weekends.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Someone just made the fantastic suggestion that I submit Save Firefly to This American Life. Ira Glass is a Whedon fan. Everything I write I read aloud, and if it doesn't work when i read it, I revise.

I have a pretty okay voice.

Does this sound overly insane and presumptuous? My agent says to of course go for it, but I'm not sure if I'm being crazy. Is this crazy?
