Brother appears to have decided to break things off with his FF/daughter's mother. I've no idea when or why or how this decision was reached. As is typical, I learn these things after the fact.
She (FFF) gets to keep my parents, I think. If I understood his email correctly.
I get the joy of being the one who gets to hear all my brother's confessions/venting/etc.
In the event that I am cranky, or weirder than normal, I apologize. I'm just sick of people splitting up, and worried that my niece will end up living in North Dakota, far from me. She means the world to me, that little girl, and I don't want to lose her.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
Somervillains (and other Boston area folk) - I'm hosting an Angel Premier party this Sunday, starting at 7:30 (or earlier if people want --- I'm easy). Featuring special guest star Hecubus! If you didn't already get an email from me, write to the profile address and I'll forward details.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
I forgot to mention it, but this past Sunday at 4am, my cousin's wife gave birth to her baby, the much-expected Alyssa. (Much expected because my cousin was sure she'd be born the first week of September, and because labor finally got induced Saturday noon and 16 hours is plenty. And because she was named about 5 months before she was born. They framed the sonogram pictures, too!)
So now I am a cousin-aunt, and the first of my generation of kin have reproduced. I am pleased and all involved are healthy and lacking no toes.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
Well, I dived in the Buffista pool, but I just haven't been able to keep up. I suppose I will be a very occasional presence on Phoenix. I really love the community you have here and wish I could keep up with it all.
If I somehow made an impression on anyone and they'd like to keep in touch, you can reach me via [link]

I'll be going dark until sometime Sunday afternoon-- family-related trip to the Catskills this weekend, but at least it's a straight shot east on the Mass. Pike, which is wide open and easy driving.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Here I go again, dark till Wednesday night, and trusting the Angel premiere and Tuesday's Buffy episode to the tender mercies of the vcr and DH's remembering to change tapes after Angel on Sunday.
Checking Beep Me and Press, and skimming like crazy in the meantime. Be well, ev'body. Don't let the bastids get you down!

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
Paging Jon B. or other Somervillains
I can suddenly make it to the Angel party tonight, but need directions.
Please drop me a line at victor@quantumredhead.com ASAP if you can help.
Gracias.
