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

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.

If anyone is desparate to see snippets of Alyson Hannigan, the WB is doing an easy view of the Pepsi Smash on Sunday
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.
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.
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.
I think I need -ma of some description. Spoke to my dad this morning; my mother nearly died last week. She's no longer critical, and is expected out of hospital tomorrow; but this is happening more often. My contract here includes some provision for trips back home in the event of 'serious illness, death, or personal emergency', subject to approval. I think I'm going to try to invoke it.
