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!

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.

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

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

Who? moi??

I am proctoring some of the accommodated applicants at the California State Bar. I will be locked in a room with 10 really nervous people.

If I escape alive I will thank you all.

Much ~ma would be appreciated.

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

You may or may not have noticed my absence. There are a lot of things keeping me busy and b.org is a hard place to come back to and catch up if you're not reading regularly. I hope to keep my hand in here, but I don't know how long it'll be 'til I manage to get into a groove with fitting b.org into my websurfing again. (And I find I'm losing track of who's who on LJ on top of it all. I can only track one alias per person.)

I'm reachable at spidra@speakeasy.net in the meantime.

I'm hoping I can still get to know the various Bay Area Buffistae better in person even if I end up slacking online.
