Birth, death, illness, new job, vacation...if it's happening to you and you want us to know about it, post it here. These threads are intended for announcements only. Want to offer sympathy or congratulations, or talk about anything? Take it to Natter. Any natter here will be deleted.
I will be going walkabout starting on Monday. I will be traveling around Northern California. No idea of when I will be back.
I =think= I will be going to Redding, Burney, Alturas, Susanville, Nevada City, Jamestown, Yosemite, then home. I may cut the trip short, may not.
When I get back I will set up a LJ and post stuff.
Hear Ye! Hear Ye!
The Asstasstic JZ would like it known that if you were to venture to her RenFaire (near Gilroy) and wish to find her at that Faire you should go to the Rogue's Reef stage and check the schedule for Pye Powder Court (almost always at noon) for she will be performing in it. There you may watch her squeal like a pig in a sexual fervor and throw herself into the arms of a pretty gothboy. After, if you are lucky, you'll find her kitted out in full Puritan garb asking why you want to make the Babby Jesu Crye.
I could use some major jobma this week, folks. Any positive vibes you could send in my direction would be most appreciated.
I could use a double dose of C++ma today, if there's any lying around -- I have a job interview at 1:00 and a test at 7:00.
Many thanks. I realize that C++ma is a somewhat rare commodity compared to the more commonly-requested mas, and I'll do my best to return it undented.
Not sure whether this should be posted here or in press...
For Bay Area Buffistas or visitors wishing to attend Sharks games, I have a pair of tickets available for most games this season. They are in Section 209, row 16, seats 9-10, behind the goal the Sharks attack twice. The price is $36 for the pair. Seating chart is here; while they are in the nosebleeds, it's a pretty good view (Deb, back me up on this!):

Schedule is here:

If you're interested, please email me at my profile address and I'll send you a listing of available games.
Oops, just noticed a typo, should be row 15, not 16.
I just got a sweet raise and a big honkin' bonus!!!!
Huh. So. Jobma no longer needed. New company wants to pay me more, give me better benefits, and compensate me for any overtime despite being an Actual Employee.
I start Monday. Meep.
Thanks everyone for the ~ma last week before I lectured at Yale. The two days went very well, they were very happy and it looks like they will have me back every year or two for another workshop.
My email is not letting me in. Then it lets me in, and times out right away, and then doesn't let me back in.
If anyone needs me--YELL, REALLY LOUDLY!
