I'm back from the beach after 2 weeks ish. I was thinking about all of y'all while I was there and sending out good thoughts and worrying about ya'll.

Hugs and comfort to everyone who needs it and congrats to everyone else.

I'll have pictures at some point.

Back from Pennsic, restocked with groceries lost in the blackout, laundry is done, and a couple of days off work as my office is closed to help with the power shortage. I just might be able to catch up in all my threads here with no work distraction. Once some good pics from Pennsic start hitting the Net, I'll post a link or two in Natter.

Been pretty gray but making it official. Until the move (assuming all goes well and the landlord doesn't do us ill) is over, I'll be dark gray at best. I will, hopefully, be more present sometime after 9/5.

Greyish at present, likely to shade to charcoal/black soon. All being well, should leave country in a week's time and not sure of internet access -- however, new employers still haven't sent me any damn info to speak of, and I've still not received the air ticket they promised. It may all go tits up. Life-ma greatly appreciated.

I was just interviewed by a writer for the Durham Herald-Sun about the play I'm in. This may turn out to be the most ink I've received yet.

Going grayer than usual for the time being, thanks to work changes and associated despair.

Off for an interview. Jobma appreciated.

I am 30 today! (August 20th - it being half past midnight where I'm at, and so I'm already in tomorrow as far as Board Time is concerned.)

Go me with the not being dead yet!

WRT yesterday's interview, the bad news is, they went with another candidate. The good news is, although I was second choice, I appear to have interviewed very well, as it seems they had nothing but good things to say about me.

More positions are opening up in the wonderful world of Random Contract Employment, and I still have high hopes for the position I interviewed for on Monday.

Strangely, I'm okay with all this.
