On its way, Kat.
Well some friends of Buffy played a funny joke and they took her stuff and now she wants us to help get it back from her friends who sleep all day and have no tans.

No probs. And yeah, I need to head to bed, too. I slept half today away and that can't happen tomorrow. I have so much work to do. Board meeting Saturday! Then concert Saturday night, presenting Saturday night & Sunday morning (3 services!) and full length concert Sunday night.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
How's life, bon bon? When do you hear about the bar?
Two weeks-- I've put off applying for jobs until I find out. The exam was so hard, and I was really sick, so I just can't be sure I passed. So life is poor, but not stressful! (The cutest kittens in the world help, so long as they're healthy.)

...and I was raised all quaker and culturally aware and sensitive and shit, but the thing is? Fuck that shit when it comes down to girls' lives. I got lucky that my background is turn of the century irish immigrants who placed value on edu.(Gramma Tres got a math degree from Grinnel in the 20s.) It's complicated, I get that. You love your family. But I just don't get the sabotage.

Normally I'd be all, you need to go to the best school you get into. I don't think community college really counts, so how about CSU? Anyway, Bob's parents wouldn't let him go to Amherst or Williams or whatever, he went to University of Dayton, got a 4.0 and got into a top PhD program. It's possible, it's just harder.

last message before bed....
They want her to go to a "name-brand" school. She was told not to apply to any of the CSU system at all.
Again, boggled. Ah well.
Time for bed.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
Well, I could follow, if not agree, up until that last bit. I t makes no sense.

sara, I really like your kitchen.
Kat, I don't know what to say. And I'm not sure I understood the whole story. But I think it's best that if L is 18, the choice should be hers as much as possible.
David, I hope all went well.
Now, getting ready to go and see my new born cousin, Noam. I'd add a smiling emoticon if I didn't hate them, but you get the mood.

I hope so!

It did!
They sold out an 80-seater for the movie. It was cool. I got a free beer and talked afterwards. Saw some friends from the world of Rock and Roll, and also a couple of JZ's friends from Faire came out. Also, I got an honorarium. Not in the range of pay-the-rent, but well more than gas-up-the-car.
