And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Woo hoo Gris! Congrats!

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Bad news: I'm in debt again.

Good news: I have a car I can call my own again. [link]

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Congrats, gris! And dcp, may it run well for you.

Juliebird, I'm so sorry -- I saw my old company go through that sort of chaos and bad decisions before I was laid off (and it continued after, according to my ex-coworkers, most of whom have also been laid off since.) Mentally preparing yourself for leaving is probably the best you can do.

I don't want to be awake.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Tonight we're going to see Cheryl Wheeler and Christine Lavin at the Birchmere. Should be good.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Congrats to Jessica and Gris!! Separately, I mean. I mean, right? Just checking.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Congrats Gris!

Does anyone know if you can light a furnace pilot light without a fireplace clicky lighter? I have a regular lighter. And some spaghetti which I could use if I knew how to light it on fire.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Are you sure you need a lighter at all? I think most of them have an ignition switch.

I actually read all 300 and something messages! Lets see how my memory is this morning...

Glad to hear ita's mom is ok, and will be watching my mom closely in the hopes she avoids any broken bones. She does all my heavy lifting these days, we can't have her getting broken!

Yay Jess!!! Congrats!

Kitty cats are cute and lizards are kinda creepy but fascinating.

Hope msbelle feels better, and that Juliebird keeps her job.

Nothing much to report from me. A family friend gave me a bunch of adorable baby stuff yesterday, which was awesome. BF and I have been shopping for furniture for our new place ONLINE, which seriously sucks. Honestly, picking out a mattress on the internet??? :S But alas, what choice do we have? Its better than letting him pick out everything on his own. *shudders*

Oh! And grats to Gris and to Spidra too!!
