I am internetless at home, and haven't been near a job that lets me use the computer, so I might be pretty dark for the next little while.

I'm leaving for the wilds of Canada tomorrow at 6 in the morning, so I should really get offline now and go to bed. (Realistically, I'll be going dark in, oh, another hour or so.)

My internet access will be nonexistent until August 1st. If you DESPERATELY need to contact me, I'll have my cell phone and will probably turn it on once a day to check messages.

[muahaha! I had a typo in this post for TEN DAYS and I just edited it out! Oh, the power!]

TomW and I are leaving for vacation. No internet, no phone. Pitch black. See ya in August...

A small dose of the Buffista Job-ma would be appreciated. I've been doing some projects for The Maus and they've been going well. It looks like they are happy enough that I may be popping into the regular rotation as a Sound Designer for projects for them. I'd really like this happen. It's not full time and I have no desire for it to be. Basically it means that I'm on the list and get hired project to project. I'd really love to get an average of 1 to 2 weeks of work a month out of them.

For those who have been following it, my pregnancy saga is approaching the end phase. I'm now at nearly 36 weeks without any further incidents, which is a huge relief; the baby should now definitely be viable if she had to come out, for whatever reason.

Unfortunately, the closer we get to my due date (end of August), the more the risks increase again. So on the advice of my doctors I'm going back to hospital again for observation starting tomorrow morning. If everything continues to go according to plan, and no emergency situations arise, I'll have a scheduled c-section probably around the second week of August.

It's a brand new wing of the same hospital I was in before, opened last weekend, and theoretically with internet access, though nobody could tell us if this was actually working yet. So I may be back online, maybe not, but if I am I'll check back in and keep you posted.

Some of that patented Buffista ~ma (healthy baby ~ma, good birth ~ma, etc. etc.) in our direction would be much appreciated. Thanks!

We just got a call that DH's mom is in the hospital. Lyme Disease or some evil varient. She was bitten Less than 48 hours ago, but she has other health problems. Please send health ma~

Well, I'm on my way across the country to my new home in Burbank. The car is a tad full—even more so when you consider the two extremely unhappy felines in the back. 77 miles in, and we've already had to stop three times for various cat trauma. Hoping for smoother sailing for the next 3300+ miles. Safe travel and happy new life -ma would be appreciated. I don't know if I've ever been more terrified...or more excited...in my life.

This afternoon I'm having a 'get to know you over coffee' meeting with the hiring manager for the full-time job I applied for. Yes, we want to interview you ~ma would be greatly appreciated.

Hey there y'all. Almanzo and I have finally got everything set down for our move, and in between Milwaukee and Sydney, we've got a couple days in LA from August 4-7.

Now I have AIM. My screen name is DoctorFateJSA (I got it for a role playing game) but now that I have it, people can add me to their buddy lists. (Because I'm still figuring out how to do that.)
