I accepted a new job.
WOOHOO.
Still in the bay area, right?
Ah, yes, of course. The gypsies, they gave you your soul. The gypsies are filthy people. Ptui! We shall speak of them no more.

Thanks for the ionizer links, guys -- I think I'll give the bulbs a miss.
Congrats on the new job, Suela!

Yeah, it's in Oakland, which will, ironically, be a more difficult/expensive commute than my current one to downtown SF. Also fewer great restaurants nearby.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Congratulations, Consuela!
I just got off a near hour-long video conference Skype session with my sister. I have to say, it's well suited for rambling shit-shooting, plus entirely of the free.
I wonder if we'll get bored of it, or if it will become totally normal. My parents both want webcams now.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Juliana introduced me to 3 Olive Cherry Vodka, for lo she is evil.
which, to take the credit, I introduced her to.
Actually, not to rain on your parade, darling, but I was drinking Three Olives Cherry & 7ups long before I knew you - we had it at the Market BBQ in MSP & it was my drink of choice at karaoke. You just supplied it when I hadn't had it for nigh on 6 months, for which I was very grateful.
YAY Consuela!!!
Gah. Still have the ick. Want to go running, but am doubtful of motivation.

ah, this I did not know. I should have realized that someone with such excellent taste would already have known of the 3 Olives
