Helicopter has been circling my neighborhood for 45 minutes. Wonder why? Should I turn the news on?
Hmm... helicopter went away.
Once you were on to them there was no point in staying?
Oh, I get it. You just don't like who did the rescuing, that's all. Wishin' I was your boyfriend what's-his-height. Oh wait, he's run off.

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

Skipping to post that, according to the Buffista Calendar, today is askye's birthday.
Happy birthday, askye! With lots of wishes for a great day and a wonderful year!
Also, since I may not have any sort of computer time tomorrow (my students are having a big exam on Thursday, so it's one huge rehearsal lesson tomorrow), I'm going to write it now, and hopefully be able to log on on time for it, as well: tomorrow, June 17 will be Cass' birthday, so lots of early wishes for her, as well.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Am I too late to say Hi, Nilly! live and in real time? Because oh, how you're missed and thought of!

JZ!
*You* are missed and thought of! But *I* may be way too late to tell you that in real time! [Edit: hopefully, only on this night of all nights, so I wish myself better luck next time.]

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Hi Nilly!
I have no idea why I'm awake. My body just isn't paying any attention to when the sun is out.

Oh, but at least I'm not too late to wave at Hil. And wish her a good night's sleep regardless of my selfish wishes to post with her.

Well, it's already nearly morning here.

I'm up but imminently to be down, with the assistance of some heavy-duty allergy meds I just took to cope with all the dust the housecleaning has been kicking up. Must remember to set the alarm before I collapse, or I'll never get up.
Sadly, too tired to say anything coherent, much. Except that I just remembered that in all the housecleaning I stumbled on a lovely little vintage book on numbers for children that I'd found at a library book sale years ago and picked up for you, then never sent. Are you still at the same address as a couple of years ago? I may even be able to send it later this morning!
(Birthday wishes are pending until the wishees are actually awake to receive and revel in them.)
(Bleah. I made way too many typos writing this post. Meds are kicking in. Bedtime.)

“Not dead yet!”
Happy Birthday, askye!

Oh, JZ, that's so sweet of you! Yes, I'm still at the same address, and I think you're great!
I just told Shir about that little avatar which was sent world-wide for the first F2F, remember? She said that she and omnis (IIRC) were trying to find a way for her to participate in the current F2F via web-cam, and I was charmed by the differences in technology a few years managed to bring over b.org worldwide.
Hil, good morning! Or, rather, timelies!
[Edited to wave at Barb and wonder how she's doing.]
