That's great, Karl. I've cruised their website more than a couple times hoping I'd see a job that'd fit me. Not yet, though. Speaking of the tie-dyed side of the Force, I'd be happy to meet up with some of the Bay Area Buffistas. I'm surprised that there are more living here than I thought there were. How many live in the East Bay like li'l ol' East Bay Chauvinist me?
It's like, in the middle of all this, I'm paranoid that you'll think I don't like poetry.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Spidra, check out the Buffista map on Frappr. [link]

Thanks, dcp. What a neat little site. I'm so behind in my web-consumption these days.
eta - and thank YOU, beth.

move out and draw fire
how many people can say that they can see both the Golden Gate Bridge and Alcatraz from their office window?
I can't, but I can say that my job interview whence I got my current job took place in an office with this view. I knew it was meant to be when I walked in. (Now if only they'd ever let me transfer back to California!) Job is no wise as cool as the Internet Archive, though.
The DH has been in a homesick way since we watched The Fog last weekend, talking about Point Reyes and the whole area. We'd love to move back, but I think Pacific Northwest is more likely...after finishing life in DC, of course. We are on evacuation standby (birdy flu), so may be returning to the States sooner than I thought.

Gronk. I was up most of the night crying. T (my best friend since 1st grade), her parents, her sister, her b-i-l, and the two nephews (my nephews that I am always bragging about), are moving to Texas sometime in the next six months.

Thanks, vw. I think I am going to try to set up a livejournal for her and am IM account. If she is going to be that far away, I'm going to have to turn her into an internet friend.

Sounds like a good plan.
Why are they all moving?

T's b-i-l has family there. They went on vacation and fell in love with it and the much cheaper housing prices. T and her parents are essentially going because they can't stand the thought of not seeing the kids grow up.
