"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Going dark for indefinite time - in airport now, heading out of country. Hope to get 'net access asap, but don't know how long it will take.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

I'm going to be running in the NYC Race For The Cure on September 14th. If anyone would like to sponsor me, click here.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Hi everybody! We're home!

I wanted to thank everyone for Franny's warm welcome into the Buffistas! It means a lot to me.

We are all very happy and very tired. And I do mean all of us. I'm probably not going to have much time for posting as eveyone says this first week or so is by far the toughest, and so far we are proving the adage true. But it's also magical. She is beautiful (okay, so I'm biased? So sue me) and sweet, but she also has proven that she has the set of lungs on her that I suspected she'd have based on her parentage.

I will indeed post pics as soon I find a good spot to download them for people to see.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Another social casualty...

I will be a very dark shade of gray, verging on pale black, for a few weeks as we prepare to move. I am sending out constant waves of Buffista -ma to anyone who may need it. And if anyone has any spare jobma, I could use some myself as I start my job search.

If anyone needs to reach me, you can use my profile address. If there are any Orlando-based Buffistas I would love to hear from you.

Shortly going completely dark until Tuesday evening. I'll be at DragonCon, and I won't be checking my e-mail.

Swouncing

I'm going to be dark for nearly two weeks, due to a conference.

According to the Buffista Calendar the time of my absence will be full with many Buffistas Events: tomorrow, August 29th, is Jen's birthday (I haven't 'seen' her around here in a while, I hope she somehow gets the well-wishes); the following Thursday, September 4th, is Susan W and her DH's anniversary; the following Sunday, September 7th, is Lyra Jane's birthday. I'm pretty sure I'll be able to have computer access by then, but for the just-in-case scenario, I'll post here and now anyway that Trudy's birthday is on the Thursday after that, September 11th, Herah's is on the following day, September 12th, and the following Saturday, September 13th, has a double birthday, both billytea's and mikal's.

So, lots and lots of (somewhat too) early good wishes, for lovely days and great years ahead. Plus, of course, loads of good vibes to everybody. I'll miss y'all.

I have found my perfect wedding dress!
