I've finally gotten around to writing up my notes from seeing Jane Espenson speak last Friday at Ball State.
I'm not much of a writer, but since some folks asked me about it, I though it was best to write them all down and direct people towards it:
it's in my livejournal here
I'll be dark this weekend, as I'm going to a con and won't be back until Monday afternoon.
minor good news :
HgA1c is a bloodtest that I take to see how my blood sugar ( glocose levels) Normal is between 5 and 6. If you are diabetic they want it under 7 and my doctor wants it under 6.6 about 6 months ago mine was 5.7 ( it was 7.x when first suspected) It is now 5.2 ya!
this means 2 things 1) even my bad days aren't that bad and 2) no more blood drawn for this - for another year!
actually, though minor , it feels like a major accomplishment.
Hopefully someone else has gone through this and has a hopeful outcome.
My dog Bailey had arthroscopic surgery on his right front leg last week and the vet showed me photos of what they found.
The cartilage around his elbow was like mush and he believes that the cartilage may be deteriorating thoughout his body. Given time, the cartilage will completely wear away.
He's only four years old now and I don't want to think about the fact that I may have to put him down in another year or so due to the amount of pain he'll eventually be in all the time. If any Buffista has heard of this or gone through it, happy for any tips to help improve his chances. Profile addy is good.
I'm in New Orleans from tomorrow through the 4th for work. If anyone wants to hang out, you can drop me a line at my profile addy.
If any of you have been on Effexor in the past please get in touch with me.
Profile addy is good.
Going dark, probably indefinitely. Anyone who needs me for anything (backup, support, writing stuff), my email works fine.
Okay folks, I need some good vibes on the work from here, I just put out a bid for a project that would bring in $10,000+ for the month of April. That woud be a really good thing since I'm self employed and this economy is a bitch to put it lightly.
Thanks!
Will be a little dark during the day for the next week. Corporate guy here to train me. Pretty sure posting would be looked own upon. :-) Will be on in the venings or profile addy good.
A little tempjobma NYC wards would be appreciated.
Tomorrow I "try out" at a new firm and if they like me I may have an income again!
Surely I can be charming and intelligent for a day?
