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.
Mal: Well, you were right about this being a bad idea. Zoe: Thanks for sayin', sir.

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.

The Phoenix has arisen! And...
baby boy Wolfram was born this morning. Mother and baby are doing well. I'm going grey for a little bit but I'll be in and out.

A fellow makes himself conspicuous when he throws soft-boiled eggs at the electric fan.
This isn't very apocalypsy, but Rio can't get in (yet) and wants me to tell you all how wistful and nose-pressed-to-the-glass she is waiting to come back here.
OH WAIT I SHOULD HAVE POSTED THAT ALL IN ASSCAPS, RIGHT?

please send good health vibes to the northeast My SIL is expecting -- only six or seven months along ( BIL is saying very little because they lost the first baby) SIL is on totlabedrest because the doctor fears an early delivery.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
I posted this in bitches, but here's for you lovely non-bitchy types:
I just bought a ticket to Oregon, I'll be there from July 25th to Aug 2nd. Any west coast-istas interested in getting together, email me at profile addy.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Okay, after a reinstall, I'm back up. For the time being anyway - so nobody jump up and down and mess with my connection.
Also, there's a chance I might get an interview for a job which would be a near perfect fit for me. So all the jobma you can spare right now, please aim it at San Francisco.
