My review of George Monbiot's book "Heat: How to Stop the Planet from Burning" is going to be published in the dead tree periodical Z magazine. They even pay (not much) - so as soon as I receive the check I will officially be a professional.

I've been emailing Katerina Bee, and she's been having a rough time lately. I don't have all the specifics, but she could use some of that patented buffista ~ma right about now. Thanks!
If anybody would like to come by my live journal and say good-bye to Gus its trudybooth
Baby spoilers! It's a boy!
Wish me some house-ma.
Please send as much 'everything is fine ~ma' our way. Bartleby ate some broken glass on the street about a half hour ago. I've fed him 16oz of canned pumpkin and am watching him like a hawk.
I don't want to stress him with a vet visit until it seems necessary. All they would do is what I'm doing, only not watching as closely as I can.
I doubt that the glass would show up on an xray anyway.
Someone dropped a jar of some sort of food and just left it on the street! I heard a crunching sound and thought he'd picked up a stick. But it was glass...unbelievable.
He had a little bit of blood in the front of his mouth, but that is gone now. No evidence of pain, so I doubt the pieces were very big.
I'm praying for the pumpkin to do its work to coat the sharp edges...and I'm desperately trying to keep from freaking out completely. Any good thoughts gratefully accepted.
The GF had her first ultrasound today. Apparently baby gender counts as spoilers in this thread (someone should update the slug), so to avoid angering the stompies, I'll whitefont.
We're having a boy!
