I am going more or less dark for the near future. We're finally moving into our new house on Friday, and they're cutting off our phone (and fax, and internet) access sometime Wednesday. No idea when they'll get it working again at the new place, as we currently can't find the 'phone line....

It's been a lot of hard work, but our house is beautiful, and Benno loves it there.

It's a remora, dimwit.

Could I request some nonchalance-ma for a difficult afternoon?

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore

My grandpa died last night. He's been in the hospital since before I left for school, but... still.

Second interview went well, pretty sure they're gonna make me a job offer this week.

On the other hand, doc wants my father to get a pacemaker 'cause his heart ain't doing so good.

We just had our ten-week midwife's appointment, and heard the heartbeat. It's aliiiivvve.

I will be dark until Sunday evening - vacationing in the land of dial-up.

Our wings are not tired

Will be varying shades of grey for the next two weeks as I'm out on my great Northeast trip. Looking forward to seeing many of you as I journey. I'm sitting in the airport now waiting on my flight to depart!

Another social casualty...

Hi. I'm in Florida and back online. The move went well. The kitties are recovering. We still have rooms full of boxes to unpack. And I'm looking for a job. At least I'll have some time to catch up.

(And I'm sending hope-you-got-through-the storm-ma to Lisa H. and the other Baltimore and Mid-Atlantic-istas.)
