Nilly! Getting married in a week? Unpossible!
Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
I hope that commute time isn't going to be a regular thing, ChiKat.
On a good day, it's 50 minutes. I started a new job this school year, but I'm not certain I'm going to stay in it more than a year, so I didn't want to move closer thinking I may have to move again next summer. So, I'm going to have to suck it up for awhile. If they'd finish the construction when they say (supposedly Nov/Dec), it ought to be okay. Otherwise, when snow comes?? Yikes.
I went through a fear-of-dying phase when I was six or seven.
Me, too. Huh. Wonder if that's the age the concept of mortality connects?

So one of my friends had a stroke on the weekend. I am totally in shock. She's only 42, and her blood pressure is healthy--I have been envious of her ability to eat lots of cheese and maintain a 119/70 BP. I don't know what's going on. The good news is that she's 90% recovered already. The bad news is she's off all week for a barrage of tests.
ETA: This is Christine for the few Buffistas that met her.

Oh Sue! Give her my best.
A dear friend of mine, similarly healthy, had one at 41. His recovery has been very very good. Please drop me a note if there is anything you want me to ask him or if Christine could use a hand with something -- I don't live that far away.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh my god -- that's so scary!

I will. I haven't talked to her yet, but she Facebooked me last night. I will give her a call when I get back home last night.

I have returned from DragonCon. I bought jewelry and nerdy T-shirts, and ate too many Funyuns. I saw Shatner, Nimoy, Patrick Stewart, Kate Mulgrew, Joe Flanigan, Jason Momoa, Rachel Luttrell, Ben Browder, Claudia Black, Gareth David-Lloyd, Tom Felton, Adam Savage, and others I can't remember. I'm very tired.
