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!
I have two interviews tomorrow. Send me whatever spare jobma you have.
I'm sorry I haven't been around making out with everyone as my duties clearly outline, but my new job is keeping me so fucking busy. (This Monday I worked 14 hours, and 16 hours on Tuesday.) So in case you miss me AND I KNOW YOU DO, that's why. I haven't abandoned you fuckos! If you need to reach me, email me at (my real first name) at earthlink dot net.
Well, I'm off on vacation. I'll be dark until the 5th or 6th of October.
My sister just called to tell me that my aunt Nan died tonight. She was my godmother, and my closest relative apart from my parents and siblings. My mom is a wreck.
