Going darker for a couple of months. I'm starting a temporary detail on Monday and expect to be busy.
You were very nearly devoured by a giant demon snake. The words 'let that be a lesson' are a tad redundant at this juncture.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
In a couple of hours I'm off to catch a plane to Australia. I'll have some access from my parents' house, but it'll be uncertain at best.
Not feeling good about this.

Going gray again, as I attempt to fix various details of my life that have become broken. Making-good-decisions-ma gladly accepted.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Back home all safe, sound and relaxed.
Will most likely be very dark gray until Monday.
Had a great time, pictures will be posted, tales will be told (even the one about the itty bitty sharks) and a few presents will be sent.
-ma and vibes to all who need it. 'Specially congrats to Plei and mega hugs and soothings to billytea...

"The fact that we live at the bottom of a deep gravity well, on the surface of a gas covered planet going around a nuclear fireball 90 million miles away and think this to be normal is obviously some indication of how skewed our perspective tends to be."
Hello everybody!
Just a quick note to say that moving of Nora's stuff is complete and we are now officially cohabiting. Unless you are my landlord, in which case we are officially cohabiting as of September 1st!
Big huge thanks to DX, Ellen, Emily, Theodesia, Nutty and Jon B. for much lifting and carrying and vehicles and oh my! Everybody says "Hello", by the way.
The move went smoothly. The official doughnut of TomNoCoHab '03 is Krispy Kreme. The official pizza is Papa John's. The official truck belongs to DX.
In case you missed it the first time round, our cohabitation FAQ is at http://livinginsin.rainoftoads.com. One question has been added since the last time the link was posted.
That is all!

Didn't your mom sell you to that carnival?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I'm in DC now. All my stuff got here unbroken (thanks for the advice on how to pack the glass bookcases), and I'm mostly moved in. I'm having problems with my phone service, since the person who had the apartment before me didn't cancel his service, and so the phone company can't start mine, and I need to get in touch with the landlord to figure out what to do about this, so now I'm on AOL dial-up on the old tenant's phone service, which I'm not sure if I'm supposed to be doing, so I won't be online for too long. So pretty much hi, and I'll be greyish for a little while longer.

Probably going much darker grey than I have been recently, due to stuff.
