Thanks to all the jobma vibes, Mrs. Wolfram got the job she interviewed for. It is 5 minutes from our home and more than double her current salary. There should be a link to this site on Monster. Anyway, thanks Buffistas.
The girl's not playing with a full deck, Giles. She has almost no deck. She has a three.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
I'll be dark from mid-day today to (probably) Tuesday morning as I'm going to a convention in San Jose.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
I just found out that the sister of a former coworker was among the victims of the fire at The Station. She survived, but is still in the hospital, in satisfactory condition with burns on her upper body, arms, head, and face. Her belt was fused to her skin. Vibes for her and the other folks who are recovering from horrific injuries would be appreciated.

A person's concepts should exceed their vocabulary, or what's a metaphor?
Many wishes for a swift recovery, DX.
On a hopefully lighter note, I'm going to be travelling this weekend. Driving the old Beast from Nova Scotia back home to Richmond, VA. On the way I'll be passing through most of the I-95 cities between here and there, but unfortunately I probably won't be stopping (unless someone along the NY/NJ Expressway or Jersey Pike feels like offering a place to rest. Profile email is good) except to sleep along the way. However, I will be in the central/northern VA area with easy access to DC and Baltimore if any Buffistas want to get together in the next month or two. Again, profile addy is the place to send mail for that.
Here's hoping for a safe and uneventful journey.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Well, the Apocalypse has come.
I have found out through the company website that I am going to be terminated today.
Thanks for all the good vibes.

Ok. A little quick, but good with the news.
Long ago former boss and former co-worker now run an employment agency. I called them today and let them know what was going on. Turns out they have a new client who is looking for "someone just like" me. They are getting more details and calling me Monday. I am emailing resume tomorrow.

Going dim as I escape the ice and snow for sunny Orlando for a week. See y'all.
