I've been working on a song about the difference between analogy and metaphor.

I have a job interview today at 3pm. Good vibes appreciated.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

School's out for me. First, Dublin, Ireland for one week, visting Becky's folks, and possibly some of mine. We're flying out this evening. We'll try to post something from Eire. Email addy just fine, if infrequently checked. Second, road trip to F2F begins in Chicago on the 14th... All be well.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Going an uncertain shade of grey for a few weeks due to Big Work Stuff. Love y'all.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Dark dark grey from tomorrow until at least Saturday, if not Monday. I'll be at a conference. Profile addy good, don't know how much I'll be able to check it, though.

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

Job interview at 2. Vibe me with jobma at 2ish, and with keep-breathing-ma right up until then.

It looks like my jitters were warranted. I just got laid off. After next Friday, I'll be unemployed.

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara

Frail my heart apart and play me a little Shady Grove

Another loss of a former pet for me, third one this year. Maybelle, the long-haired calico, AKA The Kitchen Bitch, succumbed over the weekend. She's had two reprieves since I've known her, first when we adopted her as an older cat from the Humane Society, and last year when thyroid medicine turned her health around tremendously. She lived a full, pampered life, at least at the end, and will be missed.

Thank you all so much for your kind thoughts on the loss of these dear ones. They're just dumb animals, yet they're not, you know?

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

This is a few days late, but...

I'm back! I'm finally back. My trip is over. The last ten months have been exhilarating, and I'm immensely grateful to all of you who took me in and showed me around (and catered to my Buffy addiction--special thanks to Min, who hooked me hard on Firefly in the space of just four days!) when I was passing through. As if I needed further proof of just how hard the Buffistas rock.

Dude. Now I just have to move out, and graduate, and get a job, and write up some articles about the trip, and organize all my pictures, and...
