A little finger-crossing would be appreciated; just learned that my husband's entire department may be laid off as early as next week, as part of the company's big re-org.
Which would seriously, seriously suck.
To commemorate a past event, you kill and eat an animal. It's a ritual sacrifice, with pie.

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

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
I'll be out of town until Sunday afternoon at the earliest, and won't have internet access.

Moving to Chicago tomorrow. If you want my new snail mail, my profile address is still good.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

Favor from Bay-istas?
My friend is in SF for several days for a business trip. The bars they are showing him are superexpensive, and maybe not quite the taste he's interested.
Can any Bay-ista with a few seconds to spare e-me (profile addy is great)? Just pretend I am coming to SF, and send me suggestions for fun bars, cool restauarants, and neato places to see? Shane's a cool guy, so I'd love to set him up with an insider's list of What to Do, See and Eat in SF.
Caveat: He's 33, happily married, and straight. No homophobe, but he likes boobies. A lot.
THANKYOU, THANKYOU, THANKYEWWWWWW!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
E and I went insane and decided to walk the entire length of the island of Manhattan, south to north. I photoblogged the entire 7 hours here, if anyone wants to see some blurry camera-phone pictures!

Team Zmayhem Would Like To Announce That Jacqueline Is Pregnant
We're at sixteen weeks tomorrow, so she's due around October 24th. (She being the baby, at least that's what our first peek with the ultrasound implied.)
In deference to the due date and the Zim-like appearance of the ultrasound we've been calling her The Halloweenie.

I'm in Austin this week so I'm pretty gray.
Heard from my brother. He had been up there the previous week securing helicopters, but the fellows who died were Army. My bro's in the Navy (why is he so far inland? Because he's a med, he got attached to a Marine batallion...although one could ask why anything with "Marine" in its name goes that far inland either). We're all relieved. (And sorry for the families of the deceased. Damn this $*&(#! military action.)

move out and draw fire
OK, kids, this is me going dark grey. I'll be seeing some of you at the F2F, if I survive the plane flight and subsequent spending-time-with-family.
Be careful out there!
