Would anyone like to housesit for us over Memorial Day? We will be away from the 25th to the 31st of May. We have a one bedroom in Beautiful Burbank, and you would have washer/dryer, Direct TV, free long distance, and we'll stock the fridge with all your favorite foods. Duties would be taking care of two friendly cats and watering our plants. Contact me at profile addy.

The Serenity trailer is now available online: [link]

I just want my fellow Somervillains to know that I really TRIED. As soon as my friend, who had bought me a ticket to the Serenity preview next week got off the phone -- she having just gotten through after many tries to Fandango for tickets -- I immediately tried to grab some tickets for you all. But Fandango said it was already sold out!

Just in case, I then went up to the Loews Boston Common in person, stood around until it opened up at 12:30 and waited in line to enquire about preview tickets. But they really were sold out completely.

So I tried, okay?

Anyone catch Thessaly on the Hank Stoltz show this morning? She was on talking about the changes with Where Your Mouth Is and Worcester Artist Group.

The move to The Quinsigamond Village Community Center is getting great play, but then, after the chilling effect the changes at the Harlow Street site had, I think people are relieved that there's forward momentum. And they should be.

I'm going to be frank, though. If you CAN come out tonight to QVCC, please do, because Lea, WAG and everyone involved could use a show of support. Plus, Tony Brown, Regie Gibson, Pattie Keough and tunes by D.J. Muse, all to benefit the Worcester County Food Bank? Can't go too terribly wrong there.

Bay Area folks, t- is in town this weekend. We're meeting at my house on Saturday 4/30 for winetasting and/or strolling around pictureque little towns and/or walking on beaches and/or a little light hiking, and/or walking through the redwood forest where the landspeeder chase in one of the Star Wars movies was filmed, and/or playing bocce ball, and concluding with dinner at my house - nothing fancy, cioppino and salad and good crusty bread and maybe some Wonderfalls DVDs. We haven't quite picked a time to meet yet, but anytime after 9 or 10AM is fine with me. If you'd like to join us, send me or Katerinabee or t- an e or give one of us a phone call, and check your email on the BayAreaBuffistas list.

Today's my birthday...

Looking for Laura...

Also, the beginnings of an important post for those attending the F2F in NOLA in a couple of weeks (about FOOD and DRINKS!) is here: KristinT "F2F 3: Who's Bringing the Guacamole?" May 1, 2005 4:49:07 pm PDT

If you are attending the F2F in NOLA and would like to have input into the food/drinks, check out the menus posted here [link] and then chime in in the F2F thread. I need to make a final decision by Wednesday.

I am going to be in NY from the 13-16 of May. I arrive in the late afternoon on Friday, and I will probably be hanging out with my friend C. that evening, but I would love to meet see the NY-istas.

Hey NY-istas!

My friends and (not so) secret crushes the ASSROCKERS will be playing up your way tomorrow night (Thursday, May 5) at sin-e.

They are as their name states--Ass Rocking. Plus HoT!T! and nice too.
