How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara
Thanks, Burrell and Beth!
I'm going to go sleep now. Or try. I'll do my best to pop in more often.
Oh, the buffista business cards. I'm sure I could recreate the template, if someone would like me to.
g'night!

Oh, and Jilli, I found something so cool! It's a Nightmare before Christmas scrabble set--I sent you the link in gmail.
checks email
Ooooh, isn't that pretty! Well, that goes on the wishlist.
In other, cooler news, Kara is getting gothier, and is so thrilled I bought her black and pink shirts, and gray and black pants for the new school year, because that's what Jilli wears.
BRB, DYING FROM CUTE
Awww, Kara! 4th grade, good lord! I miss hearing Kara stories. Tell her I say hi, and she's still one of my favorite wee gothlings!

Aww, Deena. Good to hear from you, although I`m sorry life hasn`t been kinder to you. Thanks for the update on the kiddoes...can`t believe they`re so grown.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
Dang, Deena, that sounds really rough. I hope life tosses more good things your way soon.
Much ~ma to smonster's friends.

Deena so sorry about all the bad shit. Glad to see your pixels. and so much has gone wrong for for so many Buffistas that I have kind of lost track. Just back the fuck off 2010.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"
Things finally seem to be moving on our house, after vendor tantrums and dangerous electrics and leaky windows and lawyers getting shut down and other fun delays. I may yet be able to move and start my PhD in September. Which is a good thing, as I'm going absolutely loopy from the waiting.
sj, I didn't find an e-mail, though I looked in spam (always an experience). Can you send again? Thanks!
Deena, that all sounds stressful and nasty. I hope the toe recovers quickly, and that everything else improves too.
Thoughts for smonster's friends.

I'm sorry things aren't going well, Deena. But it was good to hear from you. I hope your toe heals up quickly and the fiscal stuff works out.

not your mom's socks.
Shit I have not yet said: why yes you did ban everyone from parking on the street so that you could pave it today and hopefully be finished nearly four months after you started. And yes, your tow-away contractor did indeed drive down the street at 6:30 his morning at 85 mph blaring his horn, in case we forgot. So instead of paving and going away? Why the hell are you digging up the street again? At 7:15? Stop this shit. Pave the street. GTFO.
If the project manager' name is Tino, I will not be surprised.
Much ma to your friends smonster.

Eta hi Deena! Hoping things ease for you soon.
