Buffistas

And now my boy's in love. All hearts and flowers. But, doesn't it freak you out that she used to change your diapers? I mean, when you think about it, the first woman you boned is the closest thing you've ever had to a mother. Doing your mom and trying to kill your dad. Hm. There should be a play.

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

OK, here we go: posting this here and in F2F.

BBQ!

The Big Bay Area Buffista-B-Q is next Saturday, 2 August, at Chez Grabien.

Time: Early afternoon, about one-ish. People can wander in anytime around then, but please, not too much earlier unless you let me know first; I'll be setting up outside.

The menu: will include ribs (beef and pork), salmon, chicken, grilled portabella mushrooms, corn, caprese salad, either caesar or green salad, chips, salsa. Consuela will be bringing pie, Java Cat will be bringing beer, I'll provide wine and soda (diet) and homemade ice tea; if Hec will provide tortilla and/or basic chips, I'd be grateful. Dessert will be Consuela's pie and I'm likely going to add either a tequila lime tart, a chocolate decadence, or both, depending on time available.

The guest list at the moment:

Local - Consuela, Java Cat, Katerina, Beth, Matt, Karl, Alicia, Hec, Emmett and JZ. If I've missed anyone, please let me know, and I'll ping locals I haven't yet pinged to double-check.

LA-istas - Sean, Perkins, NoiseDesign, Aimee and Joe.

Perkins and NoiseDesign are staying with me. Sean is at his parents' place here in the City, and Aimee and Joe are (I think) fixed up - if not, let's arrange that and make certain that it's set up.

I'll be sending out directions to our place later in the week.

Have I missed anyone, or anything? Please let me know.

Thrive to spite them

Just a note that my darkishness (which admittedly hasn't been that dark) will continue until Aug 16th or so. I don't plan on returning to town between now and then.

Nobody

I'm off to the Upper Peninsula of Michigan to my family reunion. There will be much fun and frolic, but no internet access, so I'll see you all on Monday!

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Here's a plea for continued jobma. The Big Boss, aka the guy who made sure the journal I work on got funding, is stepping down. We've no idea if the person replacing him in six months or so will want to keep publishing us or not. I absolutely love my job, and I really want to keep it. So any -ma Buffistas could send my way would be deeply appreciated.

Anyone who can spare jobma for my DH, please send some, especially starting at 3:30 PM Pacific time today. He has a job interview at a gaming company. The overtime would reduce our facetime together, but the money would rescue us from a far worse stressor. Thanks!

move out and draw fire

I'm going #999999, if not completely #000000, for the next few days, due to general meatspace stuff. I've left a steamer trunk full of -ma here for Calli, Lysana & DH, and anyone else who may need it.

Cheers!

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

Huh. Final exam. Haven't had one of those since, oh, 1990. Shit.

(In other words: vibes and exam-ma graciously accepted, especially toward 7 pm EDT.)

Another social casualty...

DH's interview on Monday went really well. He's moved to the next step, and they are checking his references. His impression is that he is the front runner for the position.

I know there are a lot of people in the world worse off than we are, and I feel guilty for asking, but if anyone can spare a a litle extra life-ma, I would appreciate it. We should know by Friday.

Not javachik

A friend with a large Victorian in Pt. Townsend is looking for someone to sublet the cottage in the back Sept.-Dec. $300 includes utils. and phone. Let me know if you'd like me to make an intro.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

Going grey as I'm going home and will only have consistent net access in the wee hours. Thank god I'm getting out of Berea.
