Damn it! You know what? I'm sick of this crap. I'm sick of being the guy who eats insects and gets the funny syphilis. As of this moment, it's over. I'm finished being everybody's butt monkey!

Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I have an interview on 11/11 in Chicago. I'm coming in the afternoon before, as it starts at 9:30. If anyone would like to meet up for drinks and/or dinner on the 10th, please let me know. And if anyone has info/opinions about Loyola, I'd love to hear them. Profile addy is good.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Oh, Calli, you'll be in my neighborhood and I'll be at work! Both of those days are Christmas Carol focus.

Eh, it looks like I'm getting bumped from my flight. To be honest, I don't feel great about this interview, so I'm kinda ok with it.

And they got me on another one, so I'm in Chicago and have consumed something called malort.

Boy you are jumping into the Chicago experience! How long are you here?

Just until this afternoon. I had a 7:30 flight, which was canceled because O'Hare*. But they got me on a 4:00 one with a stop in Detroit. Even if I got stuck there I have family who would put me up.

*Yes, it's snowing. But it's Chicago. That should not be an issue. And, let's face it, "because O'Hare" is an explanation for a lot of flying-related stuff.

Hey, Nilly and Shir! A friend/co-worker is moving to Haifa in December/January to work on a kibbutz.. Was wondering if I could share your contact info with him?

LA-istas!

I will be in the area for two consecutive weekends: first a family wedding and then a fan con. My plan is to just stay there and do whatever work I have remotely. This does mean that I'm looking for a place to stay from Feb 16-20 (Sunday-Thursday). Does anyone have available crash space? I do not need to be entertained or fed or transported anywhere. (If you have animals, I might insist on petting them.)
