smonster, this may not alleviate anything, but I have definitive dates for my NO conference. It's July 16th-18th, and I will either be taking the weekend before or the weekend after to spend time with you and Nora (and anyone else we might pick up along the way).
I'm sorry. You were going to ask me to choose, right? Did you want to finish?

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Our wings are not tired.
Like that huge fungus under half the midwest that is all one organism.
Should I be grateful I am on the coast?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
The landlord said I can get a dog, no additional deposit, as long as it's not one that barks all the time when I'm not there.

Gris, I'm so sorry. Wishing you ease of travel, and much comfort to your family. I know you don't peek into Natter very often, but people have been sending condolences and ~ma from over there too: msbelle "Natter 71: Someone is wrong on the Internet" Jan 11, 2013 7:07:23 am PST
And Hil, that's great news about the dog!

Gris, I am so sorry for your loss! I hope you are able to make all of the arrangements and still have the time and energy to take some time to grieve and remember your grandparents. Take care of yourself.
~ma sent to SailAweigh's co-worker. Scary stuff.

It's July 16th-18th,
Whoo-hoo! 1) Be prepared, it will be hot and steamy. VERY MUCH SO. Dress light, and... don't wear anything that will be ruined by sweating. 2) Tom and I often vacation in July, so just update us on what weekend you're here for as soon as you know!
Yay!
