Anya: We should drop a piano on her. It always works for that creepy cartoon rabbit when he's running from that nice man with the speech impediment. Giles: Yes, or perhaps we could paint a convincing fake tunnel on the side of a mountain.

My now-long-dead J. August Richards website and my it's-around-here-somewhere Amy Acker interview from BuffyNewsWire are cited in Bite Me!, a newly revised Buffy book.

Who knew?!

I'm going to be away from tomorrow morning until at least next Wednesday. Luckily, no new Buffy next Monday!

Mrs. Wolfram has a third (and hopefully last) interview at 4:00 p.m. and any jobma vibes would be greatly appreciated.

move out and draw fire

Farewell, all Buffistas. I'm going into a temporary-to-permanent state of darkness. It was nice getting to meet you all. Maybe I'll see you around the net.

You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.

The bathroom demolition/restoration is getting a bit out of hand, plus Kenny's friends have all gone to Cuba and he's not taking it well. Dark for a few days, I think. Don't wreck the place.

Going darkish for the weekend, as I head over to MeagaCon. I'll try to report on what I hear in Spoilers Lite or Jossverse In Other Media.

If'n I *ever* go dark on you (again) without warning it may well be due to These Guys

Please feel free to drop them a line, I'm sure they'd love to read your input.

If I only had a brain...

Much better news about my grandmother, who we feared was becoming demented.

Late last week the doctors discovered a previously-undiagnosed hairline fracture in her pelvis. (This all began when she took a bad fall two weeks ago.) After the doctors started medicating her transdermally for the pelvic pain, she became much more responsive to her surroundings: saying "thank you" to the nurses, feeding herself, and so on. It looks like she's going to be fine. Basically, she had been in too much pain to deal with the outside world.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I'm off to a job interview, and I could use whatever spare vibes y'all might happen to have lying around. Thanks....

Our wings are not tired.

I’m home! Out of 23,647 runners, walkers and wheelchair participants in yesterday’s LA marathon I FINISHED 16,855th. Yay me!

It took me a full 2 hours longer than my previous marathons due to knee pain from jogging way too much in the first 10 miles. At the 10K point I was under a 15 minute mile, which is good for me, but I finished in 8:43:31 which is a pitiful 20 minute mile overall.

I am very sunburned and rather ouchy today, but I have a really cool medal. I met and shared the hours with quite a few LA locals and will post pictures and stories tomorrow when I hope to be less delirious than I am at the moment. DH probably walked 10 miles taking pictures and encouraging me and others to finish through the pain. He was unbelievably helpful.

Thanks so much to Kat, Lori, Perkins, and ita for meeting me for carbo-loading Saturday night. I was so very weary from the long travel day and meeting all of you was just what I needed. More later.
