Can't talk now, lots to do and organise, but I wanted you guys to be the first -- who wants to see a picture of a married couple?
Wesley: Perhaps the whole point of this experiment is hair. Gunn: I vote he's not in charge.

In the midst of the wave of generosity and support going on in the Firefly thread, a letter just came from my mom's former employer. She worked at Children's Memorial Hospital in Chicago, and we've just found out that there has been more than $20,000 donated in her name to the hospital's programs. People are just so fucking amazing sometimes.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
Mom called, Alex had a bad night. They're removing some of the machines to make it easier. They said it would probably be sometime today.
I'll probably be in Shrevport soon.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
I'm heading to Philcon this weekend, so I'll be dark until Monday, probably.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
We lost Alex at a little after 5:30. I'm going to be in Shreveport on Monday.

Leaving for my sister's bat mitzvah in a minute. On Monday we're leaving for her trip, so I'll be dark for about two weeks.

"In the equation E = mc⬧, c⬧ is a pretty big honking number." - Scola
Okay, my plans are coming together (mwahahahahaaa....). I have a cell phone, thanks to the voluminously lovely, generous, and deserving-of-Buffista-love (all of which is true even if she hadn't lent me her cell phone) vwbug.
The Great Southwestern Emily Tour begins tomorrow.
Tuesday-Friday: Arizona
Friday-Sunday: L.A.
Sunday-Thursday: S.F.
MiracleMan, Aimee, Hecubus, and erikaj will have my cell number (as, obviously, will vwbug). Email access will be spotty at best. Buffista access the same. Very sad. On the other hand: two sightings of my mother, the second brother-sighting in one year, one or possibly two monastery visits, LAistas, Bay Area...istas, and the Grand Canyon, baby, yeah!
