I figure I'll post this now since I've been having trouble with the board.

Goind dark this afternoon until Sunday. Heading up to Maine to hang with a couple of friends I've known since elementary school and also see some family.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Going dark til Monday. There may be moments of unexpected brightness but unlikely... Maybe a charcoal gray...

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

I've been grey for two days, and will be for the weekend. Entertaining visiting relatives.

Been in the hospital for two weeks. More weremonkey fun. I'll still be a hue of gray, due to typing hassles. Very glad to see no sane people have crept in while I was away.

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

Pictures from yesterday's Buffista B Q at Chez Grabien in San Francisco are here

Five torrential rainstorms, four traffic jams, three days at ScaperCon, only two types of imported beer, and one flooded highway later, I have returned home.

Alive, but still pretty frelling dark.

with a gleam in my eye, and an almost airtight alibi

I've got an interview at 4pm EST, 1pm board time, I think -- jobma greatly appreciated!

When you're done with Michele T.'s jobma, could I get a little bit. My job is a special appointment, and I was told that I would be reappointed (and that the paperwork was done). Turns out that the paperwork was NOT done, and "someone" has decided not to renew my appointment. Essentially, random academia intrigue/politics/bullshit. I had applied for a few positions before my reappointment was "confirmed" and never took my name out of the running, so jobma for those please, cause I'm not into this bullshit anymore.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I also need jobma. I was offered a chance to interview as the primary candidate for our publications/publicity manager, as he is leaving. It would double my salary. I need to come up with a proposal on how I would change the job and what I can bring to our goals. I am scared.
