A book proposal of mine is being very seriously considered. Please next-step ma and ultimate publication ma as well.
Oh, smacked in the noggin with a 2x4 wrapped in velvet. Yeah, that's what it felt like.

I am RETIRING at the end of this week. Hard to believe I've been working at this place for thirty years!
I'm throwing a party in my home city on July 18th. Bocce ball starts at 10 AM, then we are moving to a nearby park for BBQ around 12:30 PM. It is dog- and very kid-friendly (little kids and bigger kids areas plus basketball, tennis, and hiking). Email profile addy if you'd like details.
Woo hoo!

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Can I get some cat-ma? Teenaged-mother cat, Maggie, has a mass in her abdomen, and the vet took an ultrasound yesterday. It's one of, say, 5 things. 2 are treatable with antibiotics. 1 is treatable with surgery. 2 of them, there's nothing to be done. I'm off to the vet to get the prescription. If all goes well, she'll be feeling much better by Monday.
Oh, and if you could convince her to come out from wherever she's hiding, that would be great.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
I've been lurking here and there (and will continue to try to get back up to speed on Buffistadom) but I thought I'd announce that after nearly 20 years in the SF Bay Area, circumstances are forcing me back to the land o' my birth - Los Angeles. I would be all too happy to meet up with some LA Buffistae for hijinks and such starting in August.

Socks are a running theme throughout the series. They are used as symbols of freedom, redemption and love.
I'll be in Montreal for my brother's wedding this weekend, Friday through Monday - anyone want to meet up? (Shambles, are you still lurking about?) You can email me at my profile address.

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"
I received Lee's addition to the nail polish round robin today and will add it to the main box when that arrives. I continue to be dark grey for the next few weeks as I go back and forth (fun vacation time?) between home and the folks'.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Hey NCistas! Gary and I will be in Raleigh August 5-8 to attend ReConStruction(The 10th Occasional North American Science Fiction Convention). We'd love to meet up with folks while we're there. As we are driving, we're flexible as to where to meet.
Profile e-mail is good.

Can I have some it's nothing-ma? My mom is in the hospital tonight, getting an MRI and various, to see if perhaps she had a mini-stroke or something.
Grazie.
