I'm going to be mostly dark(I may get to check my email regularly, but not much more) starting tomorrow as I attend LACon.
I can handle the Oz Full Monty. I mean, not 'handle' handle.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
I'm still pretty dark where B.org is concerned (y'all move too fast), but I enjoy my sightings of various buffistae on gmail chat and LJ.
I'm dropping in to say that a friend of mine is one of the main organizers of The Browncoat Ball in SF this year and would much appreciate it if y'all would attend.

Requesting healthy pooch~ma.
Bartleby is wicked sick. TMI details: He began throwing up yesterday but was able to eat some chicken and rice last night. This morning, he projectile vomited like I have never seen. Seriously...4 feet stain on the rug.
We went to the vet for xrays and bloodwork. No visible obstruction, which means it could be pancreatitis or something mysterious.
Please vibe for just a very, very expensive tummyache.
I can't even express how everything he is to me and, when his things go wrong, I don't cope so well.

My mother's husband just passed away.
Please keep Wayne Fawley in your thoughts and prayers, and my mom as well--they've only been married for 16 months, but he's made her very happy in that time.

Just talked to Emily. She's in her new place, but has no Internet. She's got her first day of classes tomorrow, so send her much luck and ~ma.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
On Saturday, I moved into my own apartment. That, in and of itself, is enough upheaval and excitement for one week.
Today, I have, finally, been made an offer to be a full-time employee as Medical Writer, Drug Safety. I've been assured this would happen for the past two months, but it's nice to see it in writing. This company has never had its own in-house medical writer. My work is revolutionary! As an employee, I would make a little bit more (let's say 9%) than I've been making as an intern, and I would get all kinds of crazy benefits like the mystifying stock options and the surreptitious free counseling.
I have until the end of the week to accept the offer. It's a tough decision, though. I mean, do I really want health insurance and vacation days?

At the airport, yay free wireless! Vibe us safe, good, & uneventful flight and a good trip, to and fro, please.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I'm not sure this is really worthy of beep me, but I feel like posting it.
WE ARE OUT OF THE CAMBRIDGE APARTMENT!
Everything is out and clean and pictures are taken to show the lawyer tomorrow.
And it couldn't have been done without the help of the wonderful Somervillains. Love you guys!
