Hey Somervillians -- I'm going to be up there for Thanksgiving, and will have some free time Friday and Saturday (as far as I know. My mother has been known to Make Plans and not tell me). Anyone around? Want to get a cup of coffee or something?
Hello? Gay now!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

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
Uncle John is out of surgery and the doctors are saying his heart looks good.
Thanks for all the love and -ma. ::MWAH::

Thanks, all,******** for the house-ma. We got the new apartment, just got back from meeting with our sweet new landlord. Yay for adorable tiny house and $700 less per month of rent!
BTW--it's about three blocks from the Safari Inn, where the LA F2F was held!

Can I get a witness?(No, just some healthma for my mother...I've just listened to soul my whole life and wanted to say that.) Healthma should be aimed at Phoenix at 2PM mountain time. Thanks, all.

move out and draw fire
Family arriving soon for Thanksgiving, so I'll be dark for a bit. Happy Harvest Holiday to all!

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
I'll be dark until Saturday evening due to Thanksgiving travel. See you all then!

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
Let's see...
- packed
- all documents in order
- forwarding put on phone mail and work mail
- worldly affairs in order
I guess I can go to England after all.
Also, I wish to announce -- by dint of more or less sketching in the remaining bit of smutscene, and skipping ahead to the denouement I was able to legitimately write "The End" on the Body Swap story this morning. It needs a rather strong rewrite and beta phase but at the moment it is a complete WIP. Go Me!
I'm not sure how much I'll get to check here. I plan to try to check my email once a day at Internet cafes and perhaps the board too, but we'll see on that.... Take care and see you next week!

I am in L.A. There is currently talk (via the LAistas list) of a dinner Sunday, maybe at 8pm. Email me or Sean K if you're not on that list and are interested in joining us.

Another social casualty...
I have a job! I start Monday, and I'm really excited. Thanks to all who sent jobma. I now have extra -ma to spare if anyone needs it.
Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!

Our wings are not tired
Those of you who read Natter have heard what's going on with me.
I'm not really up to reposting it.
I just need some ~ma. I'm keeping it together but this isn't just going to go away and I don't have a really good plan of dealing with it.
Thanks.
