You can't open the book of my life and jump in the middle. Like woman, I'm a mystery.

move out and draw fire

Mal and I are heading for Moldova today, for the wedding of his Crazy Uncle Larry. I'll be dark for a week, as I don't expect a lot of Internet access.

Coding and Sleeping

I'm not ignoring y'all. I'm just in a very, very busy period right now.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Going dark for my quarterly Bataan death march staff conference.

Wish me luck! My boss is having panic attacks, my minion has an ulcer, and I'm self medicating with alcohol and pastry. Should be a fun weekend.

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

I'm sneaking a few minutes here on my dad's computer. I've been without power since Wednesday, and will likely be out until sometime on Sunday at the earliest.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I'm leaving Maryland today, stopping for a couple days in Indiana, then heading out to Colorado, so I'll be various shades of dark for at least a week.

If any of you have housing-ma you can send my way, that would probably be good, since I don't have anywhere to live in Colorado yet.

Start spreading the news...

Er, right. Once eating and packing is done, I'll be in a state transition for the next week, so I'll be locking out any changes to the system -- um, mostly out of touch as I try to keep myself awake and the cat from destroying things on the way to San Francisco. Wish me luck!

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

P.S. The Emily has taken flight. The rest of us are sitting around sweaty, wondering how long it will be before she finds the scary wig we left in the glove compartment.

...we told her to look in there at the first rest stop.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Ok, this time it's for real. We think.

Check out G4's "Filter" today. Joe might be on it. 4pm EST/7pm PST

If he isn't, send postcards to Fox. I hear that works.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Ok - that was supposed to be 7pm EST and 4pm PST. Durn dyslexia.

Joe was on the episode. Hopefully you TiVo'd it.
