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.
Wesley: All right. I'm going to let you all in on something you may have trouble comprehending. I assure you however-- Gunn: Vampires are real. Wesley: I was telling!

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Not apocalyptic-- in fact, quite good.
I'm going to be in New York on Sunday, at the Met, for my Ancient Art & Archaeology class. We're leaving hella early, and should be done with the teacher-guided portions by noon or, at the latest, 1:00. If any NYCistas would like to meet me for lunch and looking at statues, my profile addy is good.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
Possibly extremely apocalyptic.
I could use some emergency health vibes, as of, say, yesterday. Just heard back that my mammogram results from last week show a suspicious mass in the right breast. They want to schedule me for something called "spot compression mammography", with ultrasound if needed.

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.
Gray for a few days as I'm on the road for work.
See you Friday. Hopefully I'll be back at the hotel in time for the Angel Premiere, or I'll be back sulking...

I just spoke with Elena.
Seems the poor mad creature has been deathmatching away without us. She types and nobody answers so she types some more and, eventually, decides upon a winner.
Sad, really...
Actually, she's fine and dandy and won't have power until tomorrow or the day after. They are going to a play tonight (in a part of town with underground power lines) and her DH heated up some water on the barbecue so she could wash her hair. t cue: awwwwww
She sends her wuv.

Right... so an initial infusion of that patented Buffista job-ma is needed over the next few days in the hopes that my boss or I will be able to find some other position for me somewhere else in the company, as it seems that, due to budgetary cutbacks and space considerations at the new facility, my position will no longer need to be filled after the end of October. May need more ~ma later, depending.
