Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.

It's in SUNNYVALE?!!
My sister used to live in Sunnyvale (she now lives in San Jose). This amused me to no end, once I started watching Buffy.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
I actually had a train conductor one night announce "next stop, Sunnydale" and then correct himself PDQ.

If I only had a brain...
Were there appreciative chuckles from the passengers?

Betsy, yup. Including from the conductor, who said, "I really have to stop doing that."

I just got an annoucement about a new disability book coming out. I've now repeated my mantra. "There's room for All of us...all the books." Although I still fear I'm being too honest, writing this.(I have a way of that, you may notice.)

Who? moi??
I will be arriving from a proctor gig in Daly city. Have the mapped directions and everything. My gig will probably end about 1:30. Plenty of time to get there.

I don't get it, Erika? Is it that it's a shitty book?

No...well, I don't know...I've not read it. And we're only tangentially fishing the same pond anyway.(he's a big Disability Culture geek and real academic and shit. and someday I'll outgrow my teenage urge to curse and pop my gum when I talk about stuff like that.I swear).it's just that I used to always feel that somebody else would say it better anyway so why should I try to do it? Just my own neurotic stuff. And the honesty thing, not about that book...I'm just betting my book's darker than his... (shock theater, eh! Not that it's even close to being anything) but his thesis is that disability has a sexier image now, or something. I think nobody'll ever want mine. My movement can only take so much reality, y'all.

The sexy image of disability?
Hmm. That's...no offense, Erika...but that I don't see.
