Lorne: Once the word spreads you beat up an innocent old man, well, the truly terrible will think twice before going toe-to-toe with our Avenging Angel. Spike: Yes. The geriatric community will be soiling their nappies when they hear you're on the case. Bravo.

All is well that ends in pizza.

I got my first bone fide paycheck for my new temp job Friday.

Of course that means that my Minnesota State medical insurance will be cut off as of January 31st. This will leave me with the added expense of about $200/month for Avandia and Accu-Chek strips. I will have about a month's supply of both, so I won't need immediate purchasing, thank goodness.

However, should any of you have a cheap (and trusted) online/meatspace source you trust for Avandia 4mg and Accu-Check comfort curve strips, drop me a line at my profile addy when you get a chance in the next few weeks.

I want to narrow down the possibilities way ahead of time.

I am requesting either permanent employment~ma, or continuation of the temp past 6 weeks~ma.

Thanks to everyone who has been vibing the ~ma for me to get work!

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

We are officially homeowners now. The escrow closed late last week.

Welcome to mortgage, huh?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Just wanted to thank everybody for all the exam~ma for my qualifying exam last week. I finally got the official result, and it's a Ph. D. Pass with Distinction.

I adore all you motherfuckers so much -- PMM.

This is the first time in a long time (possibly ever) that I've been apocalyptic about the possibility of good things, and I'm a bit nervous.

My perfect job has been posted. I have applied. My application has been received.

Job~ma would be so very much appreciated.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

Ms. Allyson rocks like a rockin' thing, she does.

She's managed to get me an incredibly short-notice signing event in Los Angeles next weekend:

Saturday, 5 February, at 4:00 p.m.
The Mystery Bookstore
1036-C Broxton Avenue
Los Angeles, California 90024

I would dearly love to see a whole passle (passel?) of LAistas at this one - it should only go an hour, so no one's bottom will suffer unduly.

Thanks again, Allyson!

Hey. New board.

I'm about to send in my application for the Math for America Newton Fellowship, which could well be the most important thing to happen to me in my life, if I get it. I think I'm qualified, but am very nervous, so any application~ma or calming~ma would be greatly appreciated.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

I'll be dark from tomorrow morning through sometime on Monday. I'm going out to visit the folks for my birthday and lay a little bit of groundwork for the upcoming move.

If anyone in San Francisco is heading over to Berkeley for Victor and Thessaly's thing tonight, could you email me? Ripper (the car) has got an intermittent left headlight - if anyone is driving from here, and has room, I'll happily pay tolls/gas/whatever.
