Dinner with Perkins and the Zmayhems was a wonderful way to start my week in SF!

Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

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

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

That's it! I realize now that sounds like a Wm. Gibson novel title.

Excellent! What a lovely evening!
Now I should get myself prepared for focus tomorrow.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
Actually, Juliana, I'm really bothered by the dates in the poll. I know it lists the dates as non-binding, but having people vote for a location and then switching up the dates just seems wrong. I don't suppose there's much that can be done, but given that one of the main talking points for having the F2F in the PNW, was that the weather would allow for a later event to allow all the teacher peeps to attend, it's a frustrating set of dates.
Sorry, being a pest. One of those "get it off my chest" moments. I was just irked by the fact that the poll required me to choose one of those dates when my answer would have been "none of the above".
God, Pete is just So Damned Hot. Also adorable.

(Which isn't intended to be a pile-on-Juliana thing, 'cause I totally appreciate the whole setting-up-a-poll thing, and offering to be point person, and I realise that this isn't All About Me, and Juliana is foamy & Go Team & all that! Um. Just - word on the whole Seattle in July thing.)

Our wings are not tired.
I'm upset that I missed meeting Aurelia tonight. I hope Perkins passed the news about my horrid day?
I am still in the office.
I appear to have successfully restored the database back to Friday night at midnight, and then in the last 6 hours managed to re-do all of the work that I did this weekend.
One more final pass through a 10% spot check by my crew in the morning, and it might actually ship tomorrow.

We were sad to have missed you too, Java.
I am so taking you to celebrate once this does ship.
