I, for one, wasn't looking forward to starting my day with a slaughter. Which, really, just goes to show how much I've grown

Yay Holli.

I hope I can post this here.
I've lost my best best friend. His name is Ben Batham and he left for Newcastle uni. 9 years ago. I saw him once about 2 years ago so I know he's alive. It has been 2 years now since he last made contact. I've known Ben since we were both babies and it is unlike him to go so long without contacting me. I know his father well, he doesn't know where Ben is either. I haven't spoken to his mom since I last saw him. I believe he is in London, in the city.
I am worried and hope he will contact me ASAP.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

I'm off to Hawaii, where I plan to leave the TV off as much as possible. See y'all in a week!

Now tagless for your comfort.

I'm back from my long weekend. Jane Espenson is FUCKING BRILLIANT!! And adorable. She talks purty, too ;) There's a picture of us if I can ever get it uploaded.

brillig

jobma, please, for me tomorrow as I go over to the hospital's library and inquire about a job there. The young man who's called me mom for over a decade and whose children call me Grandma knows the woman in charge of that library, and she's retiring and looking for a replacement. I'm about to print up my resume, and I'm taking the day off tomorrow to go investigate.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

I'm leaving tomorrow morning for an NC Writer's Residency. No net access, but I will try to check email at the library. I should be back Friday evening. Wish me inspiration and concentration in equal measure.

Going mostly gray for I am not sure how long. Email will be the best way to communicate with me. Profile address is good.

The last of my college letters arrived today. I got in to Franklin & Marshall; waitlisted by Muhlenberg and Dickinson. I'm kind of annoyed at Dickinson, since they already deferred me once. Since I didn't love F&M and really kind of applied just to apply, I guess the choice is between Gettysburg and Washington. I like them both a lot, but Washington has the better creative writing program and wants to give me money. On the other hand, it's in the middle of freaking nowhere. Decisions, decisions...
