It's simple. I slap 'em around a bit, torture 'em, make their lives hell...Sure, the nice guys'll run away,but every now and then you'll find a prince like Spike who gets off on it.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

Somervillistas! INSENT. Any help would be EXTREMELY appreciated.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Minor job-ma appreciated.

The theatre I work with had two slots open for costume designers, and I have enquired about filling one of them with me. It is sort of a long shot as my portfolio sucks and it seems really important for this theatre to have their designers come from out of the area.

But it would save them some money in hotel and rental car fees, so a possibility...

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore

I'll be dark until Tuesday, most likely, at a bat mitzvah in Florida. The bat mitzvah girl's older sister has promised to take me out clubbing, which should be exciting. Wish me boys!

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Now that we're back, let me re-inaugurate "Beep Me" with a bit of good news.

The offer I made on the Cutest House in the World was accepted!!!!

If all goes well, I will be moving in late June/early July.

That said, there is a lot that can go wrong between now and then, so continued housema would be appreciated, especially as I try to coordinate the inspection and so on.

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

I'll be dark this weekend, as I'll be in NYC for nephew's birthday party. (among other things)

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

I will be at least mostly dark this weekend. The NC Division fencing championships are this weekend, and I have a team competition on Saturday and an individual one on Sunday. I'd be happy, if more than a little lucky, to finish right in the middle of the pack.

I'll be around for the rest of the workday, and I'll happily soak up any nerve-calming and equipment-functioning vibes that happen to be lying around.

Join me on a new voyage of the mind, a little tale I like to call: "Buffy, A Slayer of the Vampires."

This being the end of Buffy, I figure the fans deserve a proper wake! So I arranged one.

For the Buffy Fan's near Sacramento, CA on May 20th the last show will be aired at Streets of London Pub in Downtown Sac. Join us in our misery! Have a pint! Or just commiserate with other fan's of the show.

The flyer for the event is posted here : [link]

Please RSVP to ETURNQ@YAHOO.COM for more details!

Another social casualty...

I would like to congratulate Buffista LisaH and her band, Secret Crush Society, for performing their first club show tonight. The songs were good and fun, and LisaH (the lead singer) was Buffista foaminess personified. May they play many more shows.

Saturday results.

Thanks for the vibes, and keep 'em coming, because tomorrow's going to be a much tougher tournament.

Swouncing

Driveby to post I'll be mostly dark for the next couple of weeks - I'll be over at my parents for Passover, with the one small cranky computer having to be enough for the whole family.

Before I go, I'd like to mention how lucky the following week is, in terms of Buffistas birthdays. According to the Buffista Calendar, this Wednesday, April 16, is NoiseDesign's birthday; the following day, Thursday, April 17, is Sheryl's (whom I sure hope gets a proper celebration, despite it colliding with the holiday); the following day, Friday, April 18, is beth's. After a couple of days there's another strike, this time on Monday, April 21, with Elena's birthday, followed, on Tuesday, April 22, with Betsy's. Early wishes to all of you.

Happy holiday to those who celebrate it, and good days to all. I'll sure miss you.
