I am at BayCon and am thus being very dark (darker than usual). I return home on Monday and expect to leapfrog through everything on Tuesday.

I just graduated from college, yo.

I have a headache.

Our wings are not tired

So I just got the news this past week and details are being worked out, but it looks like I'll be going out to the Yale School of Drama to teach a master class for a couple of days in late August/early September. Guest lecture at Yale, me! Wow!

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

Posted in Natter on Peoplesforum, but reposting here, because it seems like a good idea:

I'm officially pre-orderable at Amazon!

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Whoohoo! Buffistas are home again! Deb's all publishy! I voted for Tim-love! ita rocks the house!

And with that, I'll be entering my annual summer (unless you're antipodean, in which case, winter) state of either mildly dark (borrowed connections) or wildly active (bored stone senseless).

But I'll also be in Indiana, Ohio, Illinois, Kentucky, Tennessee, Virginia, Kansas and Texas. So if you're there, and wanna say hi...email me. I realize some of those are large states, but still!

First, Congrats to Deb G!

Not to rain on the celebration of the board's return (I missed you all) but simply to follow-up my last post here: J's father finally died last week. (He was most certainly of the Do Not Go Gentle school, hanging on for over four months after the doctor's first gave him 24 hours.) And Life goes on (as is its habit).

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Not only am I moving to a new place this weekend, I'm also in the preliminary planning stages of a trip to Chicago.

So, Chicago-istas:

It looks like I'll be in town July 24-27. I'll have my mother in tow, and we'll be staying at my godmother's in Oak (memfault), but would anyone be up for a mini-F2F? Dinner? Possibly involving Marishka's? Let me know at my profile addy....

Thanks!

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

I'm in Chicago this weekend, so I'll be offline Thursday night through Monday. If any Chicago-istas want to get together, a bunch of online friends and I are probably meeting mid-afternoon on Saturday at The Spoke. No, I don't know where that is. Email me for more detail, I guess.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

General announcement on behalf of Hec, who is very lonely:

His computer is being evil like an evil thing, he can't get online at all (including no email and no AIM), and he doesn't know how soon all will be mended. Please vibe computer healthma in a westerly direction.

However, this does mean that if you are pining for Hec and have his phone number, you can call him and there's a small but measurable chance that he will actually answer the phone. Which will be new and strange, but in a nice way.
