Am I supposed to be changing my clothes a lot? Is that the helpful thing to do?

So, as you know, I was laid off, but am working until the end of the month.

I have an interview tomorrow morning. 9AM (6AM board time). Please send vibes, y'all! Vibes that (a) they want to hire me (b) they want to pay me good and (c) they dont' need me to start until, oh, say, January.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Sigh. The interview-ma was apparently either misdirected, or trying to tell me it was not a good job, because the interview was blechhhhhh. And they thought so too.

So, -ma for something else, better, please! :)

I'm making arrangements for what I'll be doing in San Francisco next week (Tues-Wed). If you'd like to get together, I'll be discussing things in the Peoplesforum F2F thread.

Just dropping in to let y'all know that my story "The Ichthyomancer Writes His Friend With an Account of the Yeti's Birthday Party" is in the newest issue of Lady Churchill's Rosebud Wristlet, along with a host of other great stuff. If you'd like to own a copy of your very own, check your local zine- or genre-friendly bookstore, or order it from the site; they take PayPal.

Got off the phone with my mother a short while ago.

My grandmother died last night at about 1 in the morning. She was 87.

Another social casualty...

I would like to request the patented Buffista jobma at 2:00 Eastern time today. I've got an interview for a job that sounds really challenging and interesting. And I'm really ready to go back to work now.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

After tonight, I'll be mostly dark as I head West. Will be checking my e-mail, and will be calling my secret ninja contacts in the LAista scene when I'm over there.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Turns out I am NOT working tomorrow, anybody up to the baths tomorrow morning? Call my service 212 560-7306 if you can go out and play.

(maybe this isn't an abuse if the rest of you just hold in your hearts the knowledge that we will be sweaty, naked, and covered in mud)
