It looks like my jitters were warranted. I just got laid off. After next Friday, I'll be unemployed.
Buffy. When I saw you stop the world from, you know, ending, I just assumed that was a big week for you. Turns out I suddenly find myself needing to know the plural of 'apocalypse.'

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...

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
Hello from London!
I have less than three minutes left on my voucher here, but I wanted to stop in and say hello!
We walked from Westminster Abbey to the Tower Bridge yesterday, and my feet ACHE. Tomorrow we're planning to go to Stonehenge if the weather stays nice (it's been GORGEOUS).

Please send a little more healthma and good vibes to my dad. He had a heart attack night before last and now he's in the hospital. Last night, he was moved from the ICU,so that's good news. They've done a lot of tests and we should get some of the results back today, so keep a good thought.

All is well that ends in pizza.
Hi all,
My niece Tina is having surgery to add titanium to her C-Spine next Wednesday and will be off work 3-4 months. Please send any healthma you can spare. She is a very Buffista-like person who deserves better.
