Have skipped in a most egregious way, but I'm in library somewhere near Boston. Am not dead. No internet in the house though, which is close enough.
Dawn: Any luck? Willow: If you define luck as the absence of success--plenty.

Spike's Bitches 32: I think I'm sobering up.
[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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
GC, I hope everything is majorly minor for your GF's father.
I just dropped you a line, and reading about your metadata class reminded me--I like what you did for that assignment, and what stands out most is switching the volume so that the text for humans was shorter and punchier, and the text for full text systems was very thorough. Much better way round.
Brenda, that does suck. The closer you get, the bigger the sting.
Good thoughts to all who need them, and some extra for all who want them.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
GC, I hope everything is majorly minor for your GF's father.Yes, this.

If I only had a brain...
ita, you're in the system.

That sounds ominous, but is not. Thanks, Betsy!

GC, all sorts of ~ma flowing to your GF's father.
ION, my boss is driving me crazy. She's made me tell faculty from other departments "no!" when they asked a certain question for 2+ years. An unpleasant task each and every time. Now someone has asked the question who she knows, and she wants to tell them "yes!" because she can't stand to tell them "no!"
My problem with this is the way she Plays Favorites and then tries to pretend she doesn't. Fairness, not her strong point.

Why why why do I read the comment boards of the local conservative papers? They only make me angry. Still, I have better thoughts of my neighbors for reading what they're saying about Foley et al. My neighbors are still social Neanderthals when it comes to gay rights, but they have basic civilization pretty much down.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Connie, Tom Metzger is living in his deceased mother's house in my home town. My home town newspaper regularly gives this human crotch stain lots of free ink in their editoral page. I had to stop reading it or I'd go insane.
Feh.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
On a lighter note...
One gal on my flist posts odd bits from the British papers from time to time. This one had me choking once I finally figured it out:
