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

Tomorrow evening I fly to London for my family vacation. Wi-Fi willing, I'll be able to check my e-mail regularly. Otherwise, I'll be dark.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

More specific job-ma requested: I have a phone interview at 7:30 a.m. board time (I think? 10:30 Eastern) for the aforementioned freelance editing job with a big medical publisher. All good vibes welcome.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Interview went well, and the editorial coordinator is going to send me a copy-editing test to make sure I can do what I claim to be able to do. So, either I REALLY fooled her, or I have a damn good shot at this.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

If I could have calm~ma and keeping it together~ma around 4pm PST, that would be great. That's when the meeting with the manager and HR is.

Our wings are not tired.

I just put a notice up on Facebook that I'd match donations to Ginger's fund. I am trying to encourage my non-b.org friends to donate.

Please understand that I can't match all of *your* donations; I couldn't figure out a way to state such on Facebook without getting non b.org peeps very, very confused (and very nosy about what Buffistas are!).

I'm turning in the editing test to the Big Medical Publisher today. They said the decision will be made around the end of the month, so I won't know for a while. Still, I welcome all the hire-this-brilliant-editor~ma you can send their way.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Buffista people. I am having a very hard time getting up and going to work. Right now it is 10:30 and I am still not there. I start at 8:30

I am wondering if there is an East Coast Buffista who is willing to be an accountability partner and call me at 6:30 am to make sure I am awake. I am not sure what I can do in return, but I am open to suggestions.

I haven't been talked to about this, but I think it is just a matter of time and I do not want to lose my job!
